From 10 to 12 September 2024, the NFDI-MatWerk Summer School on Research Data Management in Materials Science and Engineering took place in Bremen, hosted at the University of Bremen and organized by the scientific consortium National Research Data Infrastructure for Materials Science & Engineering (NFDI-MatWerk).
The aim of this summer school was to guide researchers to put FAIR principles into practice focusing more on the research area Materials Science & Engineering.
Dr. Rossella Aversa and Sabrine Chelbi, both from SCC, held two lectures: “The journey towards Metadata Management”, representing the theory part about understanding the importance and the added value of metadata, and “Metadata Management in practice using MatWerk tools”, including specific metadata management tools offered by NFDI-MatWerk as well as various tutorials and hands-on activities.
The attendees participated actively and manifested their positive feedback in the final survey.
