I got the opportunity to have my #research code checked within the CODECHECK program and they revealed quite some problems/recommendations for improvement. If you get the chance to have your code checked, I can highly recommend it.
Over the last 9 months, our colleague Christina Markanastasakis led a project that supports #researchers in improving the quality of their metadata when submitting #datasets and #data collections to our repository, read the blog post here: lnkd.in/eTtGM6sb 👏 Thank you Christina! 👏
