Why can’t I see domain specific metadata, or other domain adaptations, in the Data Station Life Sciences and/or the Data Station Physical and Technical Sciences?

For practical reasons, the Data Station Life sciences was launched as a ‘Minimal Viable Product’. Compared to EASY, the previous DANS repository, you will be able to enjoy many new features, but not yet domain-specific services. These services will be developed in the near future (2024), based on the needs and requirements of Data Station users. DANS is working with partner organisations such as Health-RI and some  University Medical Centers (UMCs) on standards for health and medical related data. Interaction with the ecological community, and participation in the LTER-LIFE project, will generate the needed “green” life science data knowledge. The Data Station for the Physical and technical Sciences was also launched as a MVP. Further development of this Data Station will only be planned in cooperation with 4TU.ResearchData, as this is the leading Dutch repository when it comes to data related to Science, Engineering and Design.
