Research data and ethics
What are the primary responsibilities of a data steward and an ethics secretary and what does a typical work week look like? What are options of a career progression and what key skills are essential for success in this role? For this session, we are excited to invite Ellen Touwen, staff member information management at FGGA, to reflect on her path in the field of data stewardship and Doreen Arnoldus, policy officer at FSW, to share about her experience as an secretary to an ethics review board.
This event is for all members of Leiden University who are interested in the profession of data stewardship and ethics secretary. Registration is required.
