Data Management and Federal Funding: What Researchers Need to Know
Tuesday, September 27, 2011, 12:00 PM
Presidential Rooms 2 & 3, Faculty House, Columbia University
Refreshments will be served.


New requirements from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and other
federal agencies have brought data management and sharing into the
spotlight. This trend will continue as more research sponsors, and the
general public, demand increased access to federally-funded research
data. This event will examine the goals of these requirements and
explore the technical, scientific, and professional challenges
resulting from efforts to preserve and share data.

Speakers: Sayeed Choudhury, Associate Dean for Library Digital
Programs, Hodson Director of the Digital Research and Curation Center
at the Sheridan Libraries of Johns Hopkins University, and Principal
Investigator of the NSF-funded Data Conservancy; Victoria Stodden,
Assistant Professor of Statistics at Columbia University and a member
of the NSF's Advisory Committee for Cyberinfrastructure; Kerstin
Lehnert, Senior Research Scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth
Observatory and co-Principal Investigator for the NSF-funded
Integrated Earth Data Applications data facility.

This event is co-sponsored by the Office of Research Compliance and Training.

We invite your input to the discussion. Please submit questions for
the panel to kp2002 [at] columbia.edu or send a direct message on
Twitter to @scholarlycomm before 5:00 PM on Friday, September 16,
2011.

Program at Columbia University. All events are free and open to the
public and will be videotaped.
