Johanna Ganglbauer has joined the STEEP team as Data Manager. Her main task is to ensure that data within STEEP is published according to the FAIR principles, findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. Ganglbauer will collaborate with the STEEP team to develop show case examples and support a gradual cultural change towards open data and reproducible science.

“I’m passionate about interdisciplinary research and believe there is a strong need to make projects more accessible to both scientists and the general public through open data. I also see significant potential in automating research workflows,” she says. “My goal is to always keep the bigger picture in focus and address bottlenecks for improvement. My philosophy is simple: be kind and constructive.”

Ganglbauer has a background in theoretical physics, with a Master of Physics from Graz University of Technology, Austria. Ganglbauer’s research can be found on Google Scholar.
