ORCID for Researchers webinar
The UK ORCID consortium is running a webinar to promote ORCID more widely across the UK. It is open to all, so you do not need to be a member of the consortium to attend. Find out why getting a free ORCID iD and populating your ORCID record is key for researchers to get credit for their work. ORCID is a free, unique, persistent identifier (PID) for individuals to use as they engage in research, scholarship, and innovation activities. Obtaining an ORCID iD and populating your profile helps achieve the vision where all who participate in research, scholarship, and innovation are uniquely identified and connected to their contributions across disciplines, borders, and time.

Jisc Digital Research Community June Meetup: The people who make Digital Research Infrastructure work
Digital Research Technical Professionals (dRTPs) are a crucial part of the computational research community, and a corner stone of Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI). This session will talk about what dRTPs are, where they come from, and what they do, and then present some UKRI-funded DRI projects which provide events and funding for dRTPs and people who are interested in engaging with this space. Come prepared to ask questions and join in discussions! In this meet-up, we’ll hear from Dr Marion Weinzierl, Principal Research Software Engineer at the Institute of Computing for Climate Science at the University of Cambridge, in her role in the Computational Abilities Knowledge Exchange (CAKE) project https://www.cake.ac.uk/.  There will also be representatives from several dRTP related projects.

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #5 – Data Selection and Preservation
Join us for the fifth session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, where we turn our attention to two deeply interconnected pillars of responsible data stewardship: data selection and long-term preservation. In an era of ever-growing data volumes, knowing what to keep, how to keep it, and for how long is one of the most consequential decisions a data steward can make. Poor selection and preservation practices put research outputs at risk of being lost, inaccessible, or unusable over time — undermining both the scientific record and the investment made in collecting the data in the first place. This session will equip you with the frameworks, tools, and practical judgment needed to make sound decisions about data selection and to implement robust preservation strategies that stand the test of time. This training session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).

CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training #2 – Data ethics and data protection
Join us for the second session in the CaSDaR Data Stewardship Training series, where we turn our focus to one of the most critical and complex areas of research data management: ethics, data protection, and the handling of sensitive data. As data stewards, navigating the legal, ethical, and institutional frameworks surrounding research data is an essential part of the role. This session will provide you with the knowledge and practical grounding to handle sensitive data responsibly, ensure compliance with data protection regulations, and uphold the rights and dignity of research participants. This training session will be run by Digital Curation Centre (DCC).

Data Steward Stories: Dr Agnes Jasińska (Digital Curation Centre) 
CaSDaR is committed to promoting recognition for individuals who fulfil Data Stewardship activities within their role, often going above and beyond in this capacity, and to providing an evidence base of what Data Stewardship look like in the UK research ecosystem. Our Data Steward Stories sessions provide an opportunity to share these with the community and empower individuals to seek recognition for their work. In this Data Stewards Stories session, Dr James Steele provided an overview of his career in supporting data stewardship from a holistic perspective, from navigating research dissemination to the appropriate use of statistics. James also shared insights into how his commitment to evidence-based decisions and research integrity has shaped his career trajectory.
