New requirements for NIH data sharing
Beginning in 2023, the NIH will require all grant applications or renewals that generate scientific data to include a robust and detailed plan for data sharing and management during the entire funding period. This information will need to be provided in a data management and sharing plan (known as a DMSP).
Emory Innovation Forum
October 26 ǀ 5–7 p.m. ǀ The Hatchery
The Emory Innovation Forum strives to create a culture of open cross-pollination that can potentially lead to exciting collaborations and innovations across numerous departments within Emory as well as external partners including Georgia Tech and others. This event will highlight a success story of marrying an unmet clinical need with an emerging technology followed by a moderated panel discussion and Q&A session in which ideas are shared and collaborative partnerships can be identified.
Qualtrics is available to current SOM faculty, staff, and students (at no additional cost) to build and distribute online surveys, analyze and report on results, and collaborate with colleagues in real-time, through an easy-to-navigate web-based interface.
DOM RAS is requesting the following timelines for pre-award requests to the Pre-Award Inbox: - Proposals, progress reports, other support requests: at least two weeks prior to sponsor deadline. Requests made earlier than two weeks are always appreciated.
- Proposals with subrecipients and/or cost share: at least one month prior to due date.
- Finalized files: at least five business days prior to the sponsor deadline.

Professional Development Lecture Series: Dealing with Rejection
Thursday, October 6 ǀ noon–1 p.m. ǀ Zoom
Rejection in the workplace is inevitable and painful. It happens to all of us, yet we often suffer in silence. Rather than being overwhelmed with or paralyzed by sadness, anxiety, and shame, or losing our cool, we can learn from rejection and turn it into new opportunities. To help people cope optimally with rejection, this workshop will provide examples of workplace rejection and detail common emotional responses. Effective strategies for overcoming rejection at work and emerging more resilient will be delineated. The seminar will provide opportunities for participants to ask questions and share techniques they have found helpful for coping with rejection in the workplace. Led by Nadine Kaslow (Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences). K-Club: Lessons Learned from the K Application Process: What I Wish I Knew then that I Know Now
