Title: FAIR data at DTL

Abstract: The Dutch Techcentre for Life Sciences (DTL) has been one of the organisers of the meeting that resulted in the FAIR principles. Since then, DTL and DTL partners have worked on technical implementation of a number of applications of FAIR data, worked with people maintaining reference data resources and repository software to help them become more FAIR, and also worked on FAIR based data management planning. This talk will give a broad overview.
