The NES Col-Lab Retreat will take place in Schoorl, Netherlands, from Wednesday 27 to Friday 29 August. The event will bring together researchers, data stewards, software engineers and support staff with an affinity for the Natural and Engineering Sciences.
During these three days in the beautiful Dutch dunes, participants will identify shared challenges and co-create practical, cross-institutional solutions for data and software in a FAIR manner.
Reflections on the current landscape and existing infrastructure, exchange of best practices, lessons from ongoing projects, and hands-on collaboration will strengthen community connections and shape the future of research support in the NES domain.
The Retreat follows an unconference model. Except for a few plenary sessions, the agenda is shaped by the participants themselves. You’ll have the freedom to join or lead activities that matter most to you. Before the Retreat, participants are asked to propose topics for the teamwork session.
The Retreat is organised by the Thematic Digital Competence Centre (TDCC) for the Natural & Engineering Sciences (NES).
