Learning objectives:
The objectives of the course are:
- Understand the main characteristics of different kinds of data storage and storage supports, to be able to take the most appropriate decision.
- Examine and compare the most used data repositories, and how they can respond to the needs of your project.
- Learn the basic concepts of the current European and Spanish legislation for managing correctly personal data, and when the collaboration of an expert is mandatory.
- Examine the security measures a data manager must consider when managing data. Understand and compare methods for managing sensitive data: anonymization and encryption.
- See an application of those concepts in the management of clinical data.
- Learn how to manage software applying the FAIR principles.
- Understand the basic management of IP and licenses and their implications in a project.
- Experiment how to solve practical DMPs issues and real cases (practical sessions).
Upon completing this course, participants will be able to choose the best storage and repositories for their projects; recognise if professional support is necessary to apply the right security measures and be compliant with the current legislation; apply FAIR principles not only to data but also to software; choose the suitable license with the help of specialised staff.
