Europe Embraces Open Data! 💪💪💪
Last week's EOSC Symposium 2024 and the satellite event EOSCxNFDI were significant steps in global networking, marking a crucial milestone. EOSC, the EU-funded European Open Science Cloud, took centerstage, with the first EOSC Node, the "EU Node," going live during the symposium, held in Berlin from October 21 to 23.
The lineup of 26 sessions, featuring over 130 speakers, offered a mix of presentations, interactive sessions, panel discussions, World Cafe, and numerous networking opportunities.
On the second day of the symposium, the unconference session "Data competencies: Training, education, qualification for researchers and data stewards" organized by the NFDI section EduTrain, NFDI4Health, and DALIA served as a platform for our consortium and others to share their insights on teaching data literacy in chemistry. Contributions from our consortium, NFDI4Health, the Section EduTrain, and DALIA paved the way for the ensuing panel discussion. The panel unanimously agreed on the importance of teaching basic data management skills from the outset and across all levels of education - a core belief shared by our consortium.
The essence of the EOSCxNFDI event, held as a satellite event of the EOSC Symposium from October 23 to 24, was "NFDI goes EOSC." The World Cafe event featured two tables moderated by their representatives from our consortium. Our speakers, namely our worker and our worker, were present and actively participated in the discussions.
The world of science is a global village, and so should be its data!
Our workers [Worker 1] and [Worker 2] (names not specified in the original article) participated in sharing their expertise at these events. However, further details about their specific contributions are unavailable, as they could not be found in the search results. For more precise information about their presentations or other specific details about these events, I recommend checking the official EOSC Symposium 2024 and EOSCxNFDI event websites or contacting the organizers directly for a more accurate depiction of events.
The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) event at last week's EOSC Symposium 2024 showcased the importance of science and technology in global networking, as evidenced by the first EOSC Node, the "EU Node," going live during the symposium. Our workers [Worker 1] and [Worker 2] were among the speakers who shared their expertise, emphasizing the significance of science and technology in fostering a global data culture, where the world's data should be as interconnected as the world of science itself.
