The ELIXIR Research Data Management Kit (RDMkit) has been designed to guide life scientists better to manage their research data following the FAIR Principles. It is based on the various steps of the data lifecycle, although not all will be relevant to everyone. Information is also organised around domain-specific guidelines, best practices, and general RDM tasks and challenges.

Join this Club call with Munazah Andrabi, University of Manchester, to discover this community-led resource maintained by an open community of life scientists, data stewards, and project managers, who are fully acknowledged for their contributions. More information on the sustenance and governance of RDMkit can be found on the RDMkit Alliance page.

RDMkit is an ELIXIR-recommended interoperability resource and a supported ELIXIR UK service. It is recommended in the Horizon Europe Program Guide as the “resource for Data Management guidelines and good practices for the Life Sciences.”
