About FAU CDI

The FAU Competence Center for Research Data and Information (FAU CDI) is a central scientific institution.

Competence Centers have a cross-sectional function and provide expertise and support from basic research to the development of methods and instrumentation for the entire range of research carried out at FAU. Competence Centers are established on a permanent basis and are evaluated on a 7-year cycle.

FAU CDI supports all scientists and research supporting staff at FAU and the university’s clinic in research data management and management of research information.

An overview of all FAU profile, research and competence centers can be found on the FAU Research profile website.
