Support

The Department of Research provides support for research in various ways. 

Ethics and Data Committee

The Ethics and Data Committee of Leiden Law School is responsible for reviewing research proposals from an ethical perspective and reviewing data management plans, including the GDPR aspects. In general, this concerns research that makes use of new data. More information.

Data Management

Data management refers to creating, saving, updating, making accessible, archiving and long-term storage of research data. The final goal of this process is often defined in terms of the FAIR principles: 'Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable'. More information.

For support please contact the data steward of Leiden Law School, Hannah DeLacey.

External research funding

External funding of research is becoming increasingly important. Good support in the acquisition of research grants is therefore essential. More information.

For support please contact the funding advisor of Leiden Law School, Catherine Savitsky.

Knowledge security

There is increasing attention for the risks of international (research) collaboration. When entering new collaborations, employees themselves – in consultation with their Scientific Director – weigh up the opportunities (interests) and risks and assess whether a collaboration is permissible and desirable. A ‘flow chart’ can be used for this purpose.

Information about Knowledge Security can be found here (login required). For questions please contact the knowledge security contact persons of Leiden Law School, Karin van Heijningen or Martine van Trigt.
