Dear all,

Just to keep you posted, Atefeh, Reza, and I are attending the meeting.

Very important message. Projects we work on and papers we got accepted have to be entered (publications with doi) regularly, every month in the Boris portal:

* https://boris-portal.unibe.ch/home

What is clear is that the evaluation of researchers, teams, and institutes will be based on it (at UniBe). Indirectly, resources and funding to institutes will also be influenced by it.

Cheers, Sebastiano ________________________________ From: Timo Kehrer timo.kehrer@unibe.ch Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2025 5:28 PM To: seg-staff@list.inf.unibe.ch seg-staff@list.inf.unibe.ch Subject: [SEG-staff] Fwd: RSE: First in Person Event - Save the Date

Dear all,

Please find below an invitation to an event by the RSE (Research Software Engineering) division of our UniBE Data Science Lab. There are also activities on forming an RSE community across Switzerland, similar to the ones that have been already established in DE and UK.

Unfortunately, I cannot join the event below, but I would like to see SEG somehow represented there ;-)

Who has time and would be willing to go? (also fine to be there with 2 or 3 people)

Best, Timo

Hi Timo

So this is the invitation to the event I mentioned. There will be two talks and the apero afterwards. There is also a calendar file in the attachment.

Regarding my availability of June, from what I can see, it's probably only on 30th. But my calendar is much more free from 7th July onward. 3rd July is also a possibility. Please tell me which day works for you, and I can just save the date.

Thank you, Viktor

We are happy to announce the first in person RSE meeting on 5 June 2025 at 15:30 - 17:00 at the University of Bern in H4 115 (main building at Hochschulstrasse 4). There will be two presentations:

1. BORIS Portal - Present your Research by Sumanghalyah Suntharam. BORIS Portalhttps://boris-portal.unibe.ch/ links publications, research data, projects and researchers at the University of Bern together in an integrated system. As a research information system and institutional repository, it increases the visibility and transparency of scientific work. 2. REDCap - Advantages and Limits by Muriel Helmers and Flurina Jenal. Are you planning to collect structured data at multiple locations? To conduct an online survey for your research project? Do you need a secure database or data entry in multiple languages? REDCaphttps://project-redcap.org/ might be the right tool to check before writing your own programming code. We will give you an introduction and live session to REDCap, inform what services you can get for free at Uni Bern and what documentation is available to you.

After the event, there will be an apero, where the participants can enjoy having a conversation in an informal atmosphere with a snack and a drink.

Please register at the registration pagehttps://www.dsl.unibe.ch/lab/rse_community/first_in_person_meeting_registration/ and import the invitation (ICS file in the attachment) into your calendar.

Looking forward to see you there.

Regards,

--
