SUMMARY:Best Practices for Managing Data in your Research
DESCRIPTION:TIFU (Today I F'ed Up) by losing a ton of data for my research 
 - Have you ever seen a description like this on Reddit? Are your desktop 
 and downloads folders a jumble of files named Data-finalFINAL-USETHISONE? 
 Is all of your lab's data stored on a single drive located conveniently 
 under a sprinkler system? Join research data management services and learn 
 how investing a small amount of time in organizing your data now can save 
 you a lot of time and prevent future headaches. In this introductory 
 workshop\, learn about research data management best practices. We will go 
 over best practices for data planning\, storage\, organization\, 
 preservation\, and sharing.\n\nBy the end of the session\, participants 
 will be empowered to:\n\n\n	Produce a plan for their data\n	Organize and 
 document their data consistently\n	Store and back-up their data 
 securely\,\n	Select an appropriate data repository for archival and 
 sharing.\n\n\nNo prior experience with data management is required! This 
 session is perfect for anyone who wants to feel more confident organizing\, 
 storing\, and sharing their data in clear and practical ways.\n\nDetails:
