A group of eight adults stand together outdoors in bright sunlight, posing for a photo. They wear casual warm‑weather clothing. Behind them are paved ground, shade structures, and a clear blue sky, suggesting an archaeological setting.

Final fieldwork completed! Prof. Jitse Dijkstra wrapped up the SSHRC-funded Philae Temple Graffiti Project in Egypt (Feb 14-19). The team documented ancient graffiti for an upcoming monograph. Proud that 2 team members are #uOttawa alumni! #Archaeology #SSHRC

CRDCN contributed to the development of this new funding mechanism and will continue to assist researchers through data access support, data management planning, and open science practices in secure environments.

I'm not gonna tell the feds' IT people how to do their job, especially because I don't actually know, but maybe—just maybe—updating a website that looks like it hopped out of 1997 would make it a little more functional. Maybe it would even crash less often. Doesn't that sound nice?
