In a first workshop, opens an external URL in a new window on this task, the FAIR National Office was defined as an information hub for FAIR data and services. The office should thus act as a platform for a stable flow of information on FAIR topics in both direction: towards local contact points at Austrian research institutions and towards relevant national and international organisations.

FAIR community and Core Trust Seal

Furthermore, Eva has already successfully started networking within the Austrian and international FAIR community. And last but not least, she keeps an eye on ensuring that the FAIR principles are adhered to when setting up research data services at the TU Wien. Together with colleague Tomasz Miksa, Eva is coordinating the preparations for a later Core Trust Seal application: TU Wien’s data repository, which is also currently being set up in the FAIR Data Austria project, will take into account all criteria that make up a reliable and trustworthy repository from the very beginning and thus should be awarded a corresponding quality seal as soon as possible.

Welcome to the team, Eva!
