DiTraRe

🌞 All‑hands project meeting at sunny Campus South

Yesterday we held a great project meeting at the Sports Institute of the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT).
In our hybrid format we reviewed recent achievements and outlined the next steps.

Stay tuned for updates! 🙂

The recording of our interdisciplinary colloquium talk by Lina Franken is now available: Testing, Exploring, Infrastructuring. Critical-Reflexive Perspectives on Digital Practices within Social Sciences and the Humanities.

As research becomes more fragmented, the talk explores the shift toward thinking in models & structuring data across new scales

Research Data needs to be connected! Torsten Schrade from the Academy of Sciences and Literature in Mainz is advocating federated #researchdata infrastructur es in his presentation "From Artefacts to Algorithms: Federated Infrastructures, Knowledge Representation and AI in the Humanities" at the DiTraRe Symposium 2025 yesterday at ZKM Karlsruhe.

🔐 Privacy in Research Data: Where do we draw the line?
Lea Singson's talk on "Privacy Considerations in Research" from the Interdisciplinary Colloquium on Digitalisation of Research is online, in which she explored the complex landscape of personal data in academic research—from the false sense of security in naive anonymization attempts to cutting-edge privacy-preserving analysis techniques.

Where we stand and where we want to go 📈 💪

Two days ago, we had our first Meeting with our #ScientificAdvisoryBoard in #2026, and it was once again very productive! We would like to thank Gabriele Gramelsberger, @sonjas0815@nfdi.social & Regine Stein for their valuable input, which will help us prepare for the upcoming funding phase this year.

How does digitalization influence science and society on the path toward more sustainable futures? This question lies at the heart of the Interdisciplinary International Graduate Summer School.

Great possibility to deep-dive into this and a lot more questions by our #DiTraRe project partner Institut für Technikfolgenabschätzung und Systemanalyse @ITAS@social.kit.edu 👏
