UK Data Archive expertise highlighted in Research Europe

The latest issue of Research Europe includes an article which looks at the issue of sharing and reusing data after the initial funding for a project has ended.

In the article, Keeping the lights on, by Craig Nicholson, the UK Data Archive’s Associate Director, Louise Corti, talks about the costs of the Archive’s work, and the difficulty of predicting which studies might be useful several decades after they are initially carried out.

It highlights our expertise in this field, and is a recognition of the work of the UK Data Archive at the University of Essex.
