2023 NIH DATA MANAGEMENT AND SHARING PLAN
Previously, the NIH only required grants with $500,000 per year or more in direct costs to provide a brief explanation of how and when data resulting from the grant would be shared. Beginning in 2023, ALL grant applications or renewals that generate scientific data must now include a robust and detailed plan for how you will manage and share data during the entire funded period. This includes information on data storage, access policies/procedures, preservation, metadata standards, distribution approaches, and more. You must provide this information in a data management and sharing plan (DMSP).
A DMSP must be submitted as part of the funding application for all new and competing proposals/renewals that generate scientific data for January 25, 2023, and subsequent receipt dates.
If you are including institutional services and tools in the DMSP, you are allowed to budget for any associated costs.
To write a data management and sharing plan please refer to the NIH guidance at: https://sharing.nih.gov/data-management-and-sharing-policy/planning-and-budgeting-DMS/writing-a-data-management-and-sharing-plan#after. This page also provides a template.
