DESCRIPTION:The Cyprus institute of Neurology and Genetics (CING) is organi
 sing an introductory course on Research Data Management (RDM) best practic
 es that will take place online on Friday 17th February\, 2023. The course 
 is supported by the EU-funded project [ELIXIR-Converge](https://elixir-eur
 ope.org/about-us/how-funded/eu-projects/converge) that has as its main aim
  to help standardize life science research data management (RDM) across Eu
 rope.  \nGeneral Information  \nThe CING Bioinformatics Department (C-BIG)
  is a highly inter-disciplinary team founded in 2016 to host the Bioinform
 atics European Research Area Chair in Cyprus under the support of the EU H
 2020 ERA Chair grant\, BIORISE (Grant Number 669026) and since then it has
  been transformed to a permanent Department within the Cyprus Institute of
  Neurology and Genetics (CING). The mission of the Group is to function as
  a hub of excellence in the areas of applied bioinformatics to early diagn
 osis\, effective prognosis and drug discovery contributing to the concepts
  of Preventive\, Personalized and Precise Medicine. This is accomplished t
 hrough state-of-the-art bioinformatics research\, advanced education in po
 stgraduate level and continuous development of bioinformatics methods and 
 tools provided either as services or as publicly available applications.  
 \nC-BIG is a member of the steering committee for the establishment of the
  CYPRUS-ELIXIR Node and a member of ELIXIR-Converge. With this action we a
 re aiming to increase awareness and knowhow on issues surrounding RDM in C
 yprus.  \nELIXIR (https://elixir-europe.org/) is an intergovernmental orga
 nisation/network that brings together life science resources from across E
 urope. These resources include databases\, software tools\, training mater
 ials\, cloud storage and supercomputers. The goal of ELIXIR is to coordina
 te these resources so that they form a single infrastructure. This infrast
 ructure makes it easier for scientists to find and share data\, exchange e
 xpertise and agree on best practices. Cyprus is not yet a full member of E
 LIXIR. It is an observer and is working towards full membership. For a ful
 l list of nodes follow the [link](https://elixir-europe.org/about-us/who-w
 e-are/nodes).  \nThe course will be provided in collaboration with ELIXIR 
 Portugal and specifically BioData.pt and is an introductory course aiming 
 at disseminating Data Management best practices and teaching the basics of
  making and using Data Management Plans (DMP) in the context of research a
 ctivities.  \nThe course will be provided as a full-day featuring two intr
 oductory lectures on Research Data Management and Data Management Plans. F
 ollowed by a hands-on DMP exercise where participants will form groups to 
 fill in a DMP for a mock research project.
