Planning early using a Data Management Plan (DMP) can make projects run more smoothly and reduce pressure later on. A useful tool for writing DMPs is DMPOnline: https://dmponline.dcc.ac.uk/08 Apr 2026 11:02 +0000at://did:plc:iagokugyvvui4f2a2awk2aem/app.bsky.feed.post/3miy5eqk43r2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/kclopenresearch.bsky.social/post/3mijejdcclp2mStress Awareness Month Research can be stressful: deadlines, publishing pressure, data management, and compliance. Over the next month we will be sharing information and tools to help support researchers manage these pressures and to raise awareness about stress within research culture. #Kings02 Apr 2026 14:00 +0000at://did:plc:iagokugyvvui4f2a2awk2aem/app.bsky.feed.post/3mijejdcclp2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/kclopenresearch.bsky.social/post/3mhv24szftk2eFor our Open Research Journal Club last week, we discussed a recent study by Swanson et al. (2026) on how LLMs can perform large-scale deanonymisation at speed and relatively low cost, using micro-data gathered from unstructured text.

We're looking for recommendations for articles or papers on this topic. If you know of any please let us know!18 Mar 2026 10:03 +0000at://did:plc:iagokugyvvui4f2a2awk2aem/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhdabxejd22shttps://bsky.app/profile/kclopenresearch.bsky.social/post/3mh43vd5wx22uHappy 10th Birthday to the FAIR principles! The guiding principles of data management were first published in this comment piece 10 years ago today. They state that data should be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.
