Do you associate the term #ResearchData with the 'hard sciences', while your own research is in the Humanities, Arts, Legal studies, or other disciplines typically not considered #data heavy? This @unibergen.bsky.social webinar Nov 14th is for you: www.uib.no/en/ub/179034...
Research Data Management for the Arts, Humanities, and Legal studies
Are you a researcher in Humanities, Arts or Legal studies, and think "research data" only applies to subjects like medicine, "hard sciences", and technology? This is the webinar for you!

The 🍗 or the 🍳? #TidyTuesday

Looking at the ingredients of over 2000 recipes online, where are different cuisines found on the chicken vs. egg (x-axis) and butter vs. oil (y-axis) scales?

As a Scandinavian, I guess I'm part of the egg+butter outlier!
