Presentation on "Researchers Coming & Going: New Faculty Survey and PI Departure Checklists" Representatives from the Human Subjects Office (HSO) and the Division of Sponsored Programs (DSP) will provide guidance for new and departing faculty & staff researchers. This presentation will be especially useful for departmental administrators and those who work directly with faculty, staff and student/trainee researchers. Click to register for the virtual presentation>> Coming to the UI: The New Faculty/Staff Researcher Survey is a collaborative effort among the Research Administration and Compliance Departments and other entities that work with UI researchers. When researchers complete the survey to describe their planned research activities (human, animal or bench science), representatives from these offices provide guidance for conducting research at the UI. The HSO offers an IRB Orientation Session for all new faculty who plan to conduct human subjects research. Leaving the UI: The PI Departure Checklists help researchers complete all required actions before they leave the UI. There are separate checklists based on whether there was internal, external or no funding for the project. NIH Issues New Policy for Data Management and Sharing The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has released the Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing which requires NIH funded researchers to prospectively submit a plan outlining how scientific data will be managed and shared. The Policy reinforces NIH’s continued commitment to make biomedical research findings broadly available, and reflects the Agency’s view that responsible data management and sharing advances science and benefits the public. This will replace the 2003 NIH Data Sharing Policy. NIH will continue to engage the community to support the change and implementation of this new Policy, which will take effect January 25, 2023.
