1 – 3 p.m.

Working with agricultural data can lead to a variety of challenges including discipline specific issues such as: questions about ownership, difficulties in ‘matching’ or aggregating data, and data being linked to land value. This is all in addition to the normal issues of working with data including: creating a file naming system, tracking versions, and maintaining meaningful metadata for your research projects. Join Amanda Rinehart (Data Management Services Librarian) and Gwen Short (OARDC Librarian) for a workshop addressing these issues. Please bring a laptop or other productivity device in order to fully participate. There will be presenters in Wooster and Columbus.

Federal agencies are increasingly allocating funding to address societal grand challenges. Universities understand that mounting successful efforts in response require team science approaches.

This presentation will define types of team science, describe major award programs supported by several of the federal agencies, and discuss how RA/RD can facilitate the successful development and submission of these proposals. Our presenter, Kate Hayes-Ozello, will be located in Columbus.
