NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy 

scientific data sharing.png

Effective January 2023, NIH will require researchers to include a data management plan in their grant applications to make their data publicly available.


NIH is implementing this change to advance rigorous and reproducible research, make high-value datasets accessible and increase opportunities for citation and collaboration. 


The Research SharePoint Site has links to the upcoming NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy. The Office of Research will continue to update resources.


UK libraries' resources and information can help you start data management, data preservation, and data sharing. 


DMPTool is a free service that will guide you through including the required elements in a data management plan providing detail for different granting agencies, offers ready-to-use templates to create data management plans for specific funding agencies. This tool provides step-by-step instructions and guidance for creating your data management plan for NSF, NIH, NEH, NOAA, GBMF, and IMLS.

NIH - Demonstration Projects to Promote Use of Interoperable Health Records in Clinical Research (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Description: This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) solicits applications for three-year demonstration projects to study the feasibility of, and develop best practices for, using interoperable health information from older adult research participants. Applicants must partner with one or more actively funded research studies that are enrolling or re-consenting older adult participants. The projects are required to collect medical information from electronic health records (EHRs) shared by participants, combine the information inside of a digital infrastructure, and create approaches to harmonize the data across patients and providers. The projects should also develop approaches to analyze health conditions prevalent in older adults in the harmonized medical data through informatic methods, such as natural language processing. Proposals should consider the potential impact of the project on the outcomes of the partner study, as well as broader impacts overall.
