4.6.2013 Big data, Great Science, Small Finland

This event was held in Kumpula Campus of the University of Helsinki, Exactum building. You can download the presentations by clicking the links of the presentations

Modern scientific developments require large infrastructures and they generate enormous amounts of research data. The problems of Big Science and Big Data need international viewpoints and common practices for solution. The recent launch of the Research Data Alliance (RDA) brought to the surface many new opportunities for global collaboration in the field of research data.

There is clearly now a need in Finland to continue the discussion between the researchers, e-Infrastructure providers and funding bodies, which has already started during the TTA process.

The aim of this meeting is to initiate discussion on the development of big science and big research in Finland and find the ways how we can interact with the international community and position ourselves in respect to the recent and future developments on research data challenges, such as building interoperable research data systems and research data exchange.
