Current Event: Legal questions

Date: 14.12.2022, 10 a.m.

Presented by: Patrick Langner, University of Applied Sciences Fulda

Duration: 2 hours

Dealing with digital research data is often touched by legal issues. How can I process personal data in a legally secure way? Does research data fall under copyright law? Who decides on the publication of data? What happens to research data when an institution changes? Especially when it comes to copyright, data protection, service and liability issues in the context of processing, sharing and publishing research data, there are many uncertainties in everyday scientific life. During the workshop, we will address these using presentations, practical elements and discussion rounds and, if possible, clear them up.
