The VIB Data Core is a new initiative that will offer hardware software and datarelated services for nonsensitive and sensitive data to scientists of the Research Centers. More specifically the Core strives to increase the quality standardisation reproducibility and efficiency across the data life cycle from project planning and data acquisition to knowledge generation and publication and archiving of the research data according to FAIR principles.
The VIB Data Core works closely together with experts from the ELIXIR consortium a European research infrastructure that unites Europes leading lifescience organisations. The core team of the Belgian ELIXIR Node which is embedded in the Core has been active in providing platforms and guidance for research data management and reproducible data analysis.
We are looking for a Data Steward to further develop a data management platform enabling FAIR data sharing for biotechnology research.
The Data Steward will contribute to the implementation of data management best practices to enable researchers to publish highquality FAIR data to public repositories. You will integrate community standards as recommended by ELIXIR into our research (meta)data management platform (DataHub ). You will report to the Team lead Data Management.
More specifically the Data Steward will focus on the implementation of metadata standards covering the whole data life cycle for omics data types used in industrial biotechnology. This will be developed in collaboration with the multidisciplinary Data Management Team including data stewards and developers as well as colleagues in the ELIXIR Research Data Management Community.
