It is increasingly important that scientists are aware of how to manage research data in order to facilitate their research. Many major funders require a data management plan with grant applications (including dissertation improvement grants!), but data management is just as important for the individual researcher trying to document and organize files, track scientific out put, and perform quality control. In this workshop, we'll focus on best practices that provide a framework for managing your research data. In the process, you will also begin to work on a personalized data management plan, that satisfies NSF requirements, and that will help you mange your data, saving time and enabling you to focus your efforts on your research.
