2023 Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing Plans (DMSP)

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued its Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing Plans (DMSP) to promote the management and sharing of scientific data generated from NIH-funded or conducted research. This policy will require the submission of Data Management and Sharing Plans at the time of grant application, effective January 25, 2023.

Here are some resources to help you learn more about this forthcoming policy:

• Nature News Article: NIH issues a seismic mandate: share data publicly
The data-sharing policy could set a global standard for biomedical research, scientists say, but they have questions about logistics and equity.

• Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology: DataWorks! Project
DataWorks! Salons enable researchers to gather to educate each other, illuminate best practices, and innovate new solutions in a casual atmosphere. DataWorks! Salon talks can be attended live or viewed later.
