“A journey through data: Making research visible” is a travelling exhibition organised by the Research Data Management Competence Centre (RDMC) at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU).

On roll-ups, researchers from HHU show how research data is created, documented, shared and reused in their projects – from data collection and analysis to archiving and reuse. The exhibition is intended as a contribution to science communication: it makes visible a part of research that usually remains behind the scenes.

The exhibition opens on 10 November 2026 as part of Research Data Day NRW in the foyer of the University and State Library (ULB) and then travels to various locations across HHU for two to four weeks at a time.

This community brings together all roll-ups of the exhibition, each with its own DOI, so they can be found, cited and reused.
