Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) jobs and careers

About Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC)

HMC – the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration – develops and implements novel concepts and technologies for a sustainable handling of research data through high-quality metadata. In the Helmholtz Association, scientists produce, evaluate and analyze valuable research data, which are often very diverse. It is hardly foreseeable to which extent today’s research data are reusable and thus can contribute to solutions for future challenges. A good, structured documentation and publication of data considerably expands its potential for future applications. The concepts of sharing data require making it findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable – in short: FAIR. FAIR data is also easier to exchange within collaborative projects or with national and international partners. To enable Helmholtz Centers and researchers to describe data and its context comprehensively is one of HMC’s main missions. It will allow data to be exploited with minimal effort for future research challenges, unleash the additional potential of Helmholtz data products, and make the Helmholtz Association visible as a world-class data producer.
