If you are supervising sensitive research projects, especially those involving personally identifiable information or health data, we recommend that your postgraduate and doctoral students attend Managing research data workshop and Writing a Data Management Plan (DMP) workshop.

Participants are encouraged to engage with their peers across the
University research community, including workshop instructors and CeR
staff, by joining HackyHour to post questions and exchange ideas.
