It was fantastic to hear from Jacob, Vanessa Higgins & Tecla Bonci about their experiences with data journals at today's Open Research Conversation.
We'll share the link to the recording once it's available.
Was great to present some of my data work for part of #LoveDataWeek2025 at @sheffielduni.bsky.social
A great session today on publishing in data journals. And lots more great sessions to come!! β€οΈπ

Redoing some maps from my PhD tree canopy identification.
Would love to be added if possible
