Do you have questions on the digital humanities (DH) component of your research proposal? Whether you’re unsure about how to begin, how to properly integrate computational methods, or what research tools to consider, we invite you to join a one-on-one brainstorm & consultancy session.

During this session, CDH strategic advisor and Professor of Language, Communication and Computation prof. dr. Antal van den Bosch will be available to address your inquiries and provide insights. He will be accompanied by a scientific developer from the CDH Research Software Lab and a DH expert from Utrecht University Library. Each session will last a maximum of 45 minutes.

The hosts can offer advice on various aspects, such as:

• Clearly and logically incorporating computational research methods and techniques into your funding application;
• Identifying existing or developing new software solutions that align with your research goals;
• Firmly anchoring computational methods into your research design from the outset;
• Responsibly integrating AI technology, including models like ChatGPT, into your research;
• Utilizing the digital infrastructure and support available at CDH and other supporting organizations;
• Developing data management plans, adhering to FAIR principles, and ensuring software sustainability.

Preparation

Participants should bring their own laptops and their own research questions and/or datasets. This allows participants to apply the inisights of the brainstorm & consultancy session to their specific work.
