Rory Macneil joined Harald Kusch from the University of Goettingen to speak about Goettingen’s deployment of RSpace and Dataverse at the recent  Dataverse Community meeting in Cambridge, Massachusetts.  Their presentation illustrates how structure can be incorporated into datasets in RSpace, which can then be directly deposited into Dataverse.  The following video overviews how to deposit data from RSpace directly into Dataverse.

Protocols.io and Research Space are pleased to announce an integration of the RSpace electronic lab notebook with protocols.io.

“We are delighted to be associated with a like-minded partner such as Research Space,” says protocols.io CEO Lenny Teytelman. “This is the first integration between protocols.io and an electronic lab notebook, based on our public APIs. Our philosophy is that partnerships like this are good for protocols.io, the ELN, and most importantly,  for scientists.” Read more
