In response to a reproducibility crisis, funders and journals increasingly require researchers to share their data. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has a revised policy on data management and sharing which will go into effect January 25, 2023. Our data architect can help you meet these requirements by preparing your data and finding the right way to share it.
Sharing data also benefits the wider research community. Primary data collection is expensive and the investment stretches further when other researchers can access it for secondary analyses. It facilitates scientific discovery when researchers can combine data collected by different projects on similar measures or populations to ask new questions in new ways.
