Abstract

CAKE aims to better connect the UK’s Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI). Based on the observation that there is a lot happening in the UK, but it is not always well coordinated, this network aims to act as a conduit to help ensure that teams can more effectively work together, share results, and showcase their expertise both nationally and globally. This poster at the ARCHER2 celebration of science will enable us to share with the ARCHER2 community the existence of CAKE and how we can help them undertake knowledge exchange, highlight some of the wider activities in the UK DRI programme that they could leverage, some of the on-going CAKE initiatives such as the EDI working group, and lastly to share some of our current opportunities for funding including knowledge exchange fellowships and support for undertaking placements.
