Professional Dev: MCMLA 2017 Instructors

Offer two continuing education courses 'Perspectives in Research Data Management' and 'Data Management for Librarians' at the Joint 2017 Midwest Medical Library Association and Michigan Health Sciences Libraries Association Conference being held in October. We selected these courses based on the vision of the new Director of the National Library of Medicine, Patricia Flatley Brennan, RN, PhD, who said 'I believe the future of health and health care rests on datagenomic data, environmental sensor-generated data, electronic health records data, patient-generated data, research collected data. The data originating from research projects is becoming as important as the answers those research projects are providing.'
