Support at Kyoto University #

Kyoto University provides the Kyoto University Research Information Repository “KURENAI” as a storage location for research data to be published.
The simple flow from KAKENHI grant approval to data publication using KURENAI is as follows:

When the grant is approved｜Create a DMP according to the sample format provided by JSPS. Submission is not required at this stage.
During research｜Manage daily information according to your DMP (e.g., save data to online storage).
- Update the DMP as needed.
After research｜Handle long-term data according to your DMP.
- Submit metadata of research data to JSPS. Submission of the research data itself is not required.
- Store data in the repository（Click here for how to register and publish data in KURENAI）
