This Interest Group will continue the work of the now completed RDA/CODATA Summer Schools in Data Science and Cloud Computing in the Developing World Working Group.

The ever-accelerating volume and variety of data being generated is having a huge impact on a wide variety of research disciplines, from the sciences to the humanities. The international, collective ability to create, share and analyse vast quantities of data is having a profound, transformative effect. This 'Data Revolution' offers great opportunities for students with modern data skills, both in conducting their research and in entering a jobs market where those skills are in demand.

Contemporary research – particularly when addressing the most significant, transdisciplinary research challenges – cannot be done effectively without a range of skills relating to data. This includes the principles and practice of Open Science and research data management and curation, the use of a range of data platforms and infrastructures, large scale analysis, statistics, visualisation and modeling techniques, software development and annotation and more. We define ‘Research Data Science’ as the ensemble of these skills.

RDA P21 @ IDW 2023 - Notification of Outcome

by Secretariat Group Account

Dear Co-chairs of the CODATA/RDA Research Data Science Schools for Low and Middle Income Countries, Thank you for your RDA P21 session application. The Technical Advisory Board has assessed all the proposals and, on this occasion, your P21 session application titled Pipelining participants of SoRDS events to RDA IG/WG participation and group updates has not been approved. The session selection process was very competitive and due to the limited capacity for sessions at P21 we could not accept more than one session per group.
