SUMMARY:Getting started with Virtual Research Environments (VREs)
DESCRIPTION:Do you need a platform where you can work interactively with 
 your software? Do you have high requirements for compute power? Or do you 
 want a platform where you can work collaboratively on code and (sensitive) 
 data? Then the Virtual Research Environment (VRE) is your solution. In this 
 small scale\, hands-on workshop we will get you started with using VRE in 
 your research.\n\nThe VRE platform is a flexible platform that provides a 
 variety of environments\, suitable for:\n\n\n	heavy computations (CPU or 
 GPU)\n	interactive usage of software tools that you are familiar with (e.g. 
 RStudio\, Jupyter\, MATLAB)\n	working with sensitive data\n	collaboration\, 
 both inside and outside of UU\n	installing your own tools on a plain Linux 
 or Windows server\n	or a combination of the above\n\n\nIn this one and a 
 half-hour workshop\, you will learn:\n\n\n	How to manage access and 
 permissions in your project\n	How to operate the VRE portal (aka Surf 
 Research Cloud)\n	How to start and operate your Virtual Research 
 Environment\n	Various options for transferring and storing datasets\n	Some 
 other good practices for working with VRE in your project\n\n\nVRE is a 
 service by Utrecht University (UU) that provides researchers with a 
 starting budget for initial usage of the system\, user support and some 
 preconfigured UU environments. More information about the VRE service\, 
 including information on how to get an account can be found 
 here.\n\nPrerequisites\n\n\n	No prerequisite knowledge is required to 
 attend this workshop.\n	If you are not sure if a VRE is suitable for you\, 
 consider booking an (online) intake meeting \n	external link  (max. 30 min) 
 for tailored advice.\n	\n	This workshop is offered to Utrecht University 
 staff and students only.\n\n\nCredits\n\nThis workshop takes about 1\,5 
 hours. Due to the short duration of this workshop\, you cannot earn ECTS 
 for attending.\n\nContact\n\nIf you have any questions\, please contact us 
 via info.rdm@uu.nl.\n\nMore information\n\nWe can also offer this workshop 
 on request tailored to specific faculties\, departments or research 
 groups\, as well as advanced users and data managers. Contact us for more 
 information.\n\nLOCATION\n\nUniversity Library Utrecht Science Park 
 \n\nRoom: 1.14\n\nRDM Support reserves the right to reschedule or cancel 
 workshops and events due to unforseen reasons.
