Director's Blog: 

In her newest blog post, Dr. Susan Gregurick discusses how the policy will enhance data sharing, what it means for researchers, and provides resources to help navigate the changes.

Several NIH Institutes and Centers have developed guidelines and FAQs for their grantees:

• NIGMS recently issued a feedback loop blog post,
• NCI developed guidance for their grantees,
• NIA released data sharing resources for their researchers and NIA data sharing guidelines,
• NIAID issued guidance for contracts under the DMS Policy,
• NICHD’s Office of Data Science and Sharing compiled a list of DMS Policy resources for their staff and researchers,
• NIDCR answered DMS Policy FAQs, and
• NINDS provided an interpretation of the NIH Genomic Data Sharing Policy and NINDS researcher guidance.

A comprehensive list of data sharing policies from NIH Institutes and Centers can be found here.

Generalist Repository Ecosystem Initiative (GREI) to Host 2 Day Virtual Workshop

The workshop will focus on GREI's vision of developing collaborative approaches for data management and sharing through inclusion of the generalist repositories in the NIH data ecosystem, and to better enable search and discovery of NIH-funded data in the generalist repositories.

The workshop will feature keynote speakers and panel discussions with leaders in open data from the research community, NIH, and data community organizations. Interactive training sessions led by GREI repositories will present use-case-specific guidance on sharing and discovering data in generalist repositories.
