How do researchers manage their research data?

For the 5th time since 2017, the EPFL Library has coordinated the Research Data Management Survey, a study on data and code management practices that gathered responses from nearly 2’000 people across 14 Swiss institutions: CERN, Eawag, Empa, EPFL, ETH Zurich, FHNW, IHEID, PSI, the University of Basel, the University of Bern, UNIL–CHUV, USI, WSL and other university partners. An initial synthesis of the EPFL results was published during Love Data Week 2026, and the complete 2025 data are now available in open access on Zenodo and Infoscience.
