Welcome to the News Digest – RDM in Natural Science. Each week, I explore the latest developments in research data management, focusing specifically on natural sciences, and provide a concise overview. Since I got sick last week and needed some rest, this week’s news digest is purely a collection of headlines and links for you to explore. I hope you still find some benefits. Next week the usual News Digest will be back.
