Good research requires responsible data management.

In short, data management can be defined as the creation, storage, maintenance, disclosure, archiving and sustainable preservation of research data. Not only would it be terrible if all your important research data would be lost. And not only can you save a lot of time if you can retrieve your data more easy. But if we can connect data sets, we can see the bigger picture, find solutions that cannot be found in specialized areas alone. Innovation happens where disciplines meet. The innovative power of research depends on our ability to connect datasets.
DataHub offers the tools and services to help you with this.
