Recently, the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) released a memo requiring that all federal funding agencies adapt a data sharing policy for their grantees. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is one agency that has already implemented this requirement, and all federal funders will do so by 2025. What does this mean for data management practices during the lifecycle of your research project? What must you write into a grant application? How do you know where to share your data? All of these topics and more will be explored in this session.

The workshop is part of a five-part workshop series that will teach you key data management skills to help ensure your work is organized, efficient, and verifiable. Each workshop will cover a specialized topic or tool for managing data. Participants are encouraged to self-enroll in the Canvas course to access asynchronous supporting content.
