Dear open science enthusiasts,
You are taking a peek into the March issue of the EOSC CZ newsletter, and as usual, we have up our sleeve news from the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
The topic that remains relevant within the Czech EOSC initiative is the selection of leaders for the EOSC CZ working groups. In this issue, we introduce the candidates for the leadership positions. If you have any uncertainties about the future of research data management in the Czech Republic, you will find answers in the newly published scientific article by the EOSC CZ initiative. Accept an invitation to the upcoming webinars and check out the ongoing open calls and the new EOSC ENTRUST project. Lastly, you will find a summary out of the FAIR Data Productivity and Advanced Digitalization workshop.
Enjoy your reading!

The first election of leaders of the EOSC CZ working groups is fast approaching. In the latter half of March, members of the Czech EOSC working groups will elect their representatives for the forthcoming two-year tenure. These leaders will hold important roles in steering the Czech EOSC community and crafting data-sharing strategies for research within the nation. Ensure your voice is heard by voting between 18 and 21 March 2024.
