This is a guest blog from Dr Eleni Kotoula, Lead Digital Research Facilitator, Digital Research Services<\/em><\/p>\n

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh have access to a wide range of digital research services, resources, tools, and support throughout the research lifecycle. Research Facilitators are dedicated to helping the university community make the most of Digital Research Services. To support this goal, they have developed a programme of activities for researchers, research students, and professional staff supporting research, with contributions from the Library, Research Services, EPCC (formerly Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre), and members of the wider University community.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
