Data Management and Sharing: New NIH Policies and How They Can Benefit Your Aging-Related Research

On January 25, 2023, NIH’s Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing came into effect. To support researchers who are applying for or have been awarded NIA funding, the Nathan Shock Centers Coordinating Center is collaborating with NIA and NIH staff to provide this informational webinar. The goals of this webinar are to:

• Provide an overview of the new data management and sharing policy and why it is important
• Discuss how quality data management promotes rigor, reproducibility, and trustworthiness of science
• Provide an overview of a survey that assessed data and code sharing practices in research funded by Nathan Shock Centers
• Outline pros and cons of depositing data into large repositories
• Share insight on how researchers can comply with the new NIH data sharing policy
• Address common questions and concerns related to data management and sharing

Presentations will be followed by a Q&A with the audience. Participants may also submit questions in advance upon registration.
