WCDS workshop SURF/IT on iRODS

On October 23, WDCC organised a workshop about the use of Yoda and iRODS for research data management. The goal of the workshop was to support the Wageningen Common Data Solution project leaders and participants with knowledge on how to use research data infrastructure in their concrete project challenges.

We welcomed 20 participants, mainly WCDS project participants but also others interested in research data management. Various presentations, discussion sessions and hands-on exercises were led by SURF (Ander Astudillo and Claudio Cacciari) and WUR IT (Peter van der Togt and Joris Luijsterburg) with a support of Erik van den Bergh (WUR Information Manager Research). WUR is currently building a capacity to support WUR researchers in setting up and using research data management infrastructure, mainly based on Yoda and iRODS. Questions about this support can be directed to Peter van der Togt and Joris Luijsterburg.
