Now it's official: Lower Saxony is also getting a state initiative for cross-location support services for research data management. The "kick-off" meeting of the participating universities took place in Hanover on 24 November. We are delighted that Dr Yvana Glasenapp, a colleague from the Team Research Data Management at LUH, will be responsible for overall coordination. You can find more information on the state initiative in the press release from the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture: https://www.mwk.niedersachsen.de/startseite/aktuelles/presseinformationen/start-der-landesinitiative-forschungsdatenmanagement-niedersachsen-227559.html
