Research Data Management
The University of Manitoba has developed a research data management (RDM) strategy to enhance support for researchers across all disciplines. RDM occurs across data collection, documentation, storage, sharing as well as long-term preservation, and as such, RDM is fundamentally embedded in the lifecycle of all research projects.
