Creating Compliant DMS Plans for NIH Policy on Data Management & Sharing

The National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) Final Policy for Data Management and Sharing went into effect Jan. 25, 2023. The policy requires submission of a Data Management and Sharing Plan (DMSP) with all NIH funding applications that outlines how project data and metadata will be managed and shared. In this class, tips will be shared for generating a one-to-two-page DMSP for compliance with the NIH policy.

Through this workshop, participants will learn:

• Practical recommendations for writing an NIH Data Management and Sharing Plan (DMSP).
• Best practices for selecting an appropriate repository for storing data.
• Where to find campus resources to support compliance with the NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing.
