The National Institutes of Health (NIH) currently requires grants with $500,000 per year or more in direct costs to explain how and when data resulting from the grant will be disseminated. 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).
The DMSP will be assessed by NIH program staff members, and the approved plan is considered a Term and Condition of the Notice of Award. Researchers must submit a DMSP as part of their funding application for all new and competing proposals/renewals that generate scientific data on or after January 25, 2023.
What you need to do:
- Know that help is available! The Research Compliance and Regulatory Affairs office is collaborating with the Emory Libraries and the Office of Information Technology to support faculty as they comply with this new policy. This newly appointed team is exploring and benchmarking options for tools that will allow administrators and researchers to meet multiple requirements—including those within NSPM-33—to minimize redundancy for Emory researchers and research teams.
