If you have questions about research data management (RDM) or writing at data management plan (DMP), you can consult the information resources or contact the general RDM support at your institution. In addition, your unit may have research advisors who can direct you to the right resources or even dedicated data stewards who can help you hands-on.
In addition, some Norwegian research infrastructures provide RDM support services or knowledge resources.
Currently, we have only included selected Norwegian institutions in the list. For other organisations, find an overview in the RDM resources in Norway (RDMkit): Support services.

Norwegian Advanced Light Microscopy Imaging Network (NALMIN) principal goal is to establish a network at international competence level for advanced light microscopy. The network consists of 5 national nodes located in Oslo (1 node with two branches(NorMIC IBV and NorMIC Radium)), Bergen, Trondheim (2 nodes) and Tromsø, each with specialized competence. All nodes are members of the national NorBioimaging infrastructure organization, and the NorMIC Oslo node is a member of the EuroBioimaging ECRIN network.
