MEMIC Vision
In an ideal world, data from respondents is stored safely after an informed consent is obtained. The data is stored in such a way that researchers can easily find and access the data. The data is interoperable between different organisations and the data is reusable at a later moment. Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR).
Data management is not the goal itself, rather, it is the key leading to numerous profitable topics like knowledge disclosure, knowledge innovation, data integration, knowledge integration and data reuse.
MEMIC wants to support the researchers in such a way that this process is made as easy as possible for them, to focus on their research.
