Closed Doctoral Courses

Course objectives: Collect, manage and cite your bibliographic references with Zotero: You would like to keep all your bibliographic references and pdfs in one place for easy retrieval and use. You would like to be able to edit your bibliographic lists in one click, or insert quotations as you write, automatically editing the final bibliography….?

The Zotero training course will introduce you to a free, open-source, easy-to-use software package that enables you to manage a large number of bibliographic references throughout your thesis, and to easily edit your bibliographies in line with the standards of your discipline.

This course is designed to support doctoral students in developing sound research data management practices. Participants will learn how to organise and manage research data efficiently, reduce risks, and understand how data can be reused and valorised. The training also introduces the principles of data publishing and Data Management Plans (DMPs). By the end of the course, participants will have a practical grounding in IT hygiene, risk reduction, and research data integrity.

If you are doing research with biological material (other than human DNA) that comes from outside the country where you are doing the research, you need to understand the basics of the Nagoya Protocol and Access and Benefit-Sharing, and what your obligations are as a researcher in the EU. During this workshop, we will go step by step through what researchers need to know and do in order to comply with their obligations under the Nagoya Protocol and the EU ABS Regulation.

During this workshop, we will go step by step through what researchers need to know and do in order to comply with their obligations under the Nagoya Protocol and the EU ABS Regulation. You will learn about the user checks that have already started in Germany, some of the direct consequences of non-compliance (e.g. fines, embargo of material and publications, etc.), what requirements journals and funding agencies might start asking for, and what tools and tips are already available for you to use and inform yourself.
