Licensing Research Outputs - 05.09.2025 - Registration OPEN
In scientific research, you work with many types of outputs, whether created by you or by others. How can you ensure that others give you proper credit when using your materials? And how can you know exactly what you are allowed to do with resources created by others? These questions fall under the scope of copyright law.
This lecture will explain what copyright laws do, who holds the rights to research materials, and how those rights affect their use. We will cover the role of licenses in protecting and sharing different types of outputs—such as figures, datasets, and software—and explain what each license permits. Finally, we will demonstrate how to choose and apply an appropriate license to your own research outputs.
