A new National Institutes of Health (NIH) Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy goes into effect on January 25, 2023, for all NIH funding applications.
The policy applies to all new funding applications on or after effective date, and requires applicants to include a DMS plan as part of application materials. Compliance with the submitted and accepted plan will be assessed. Non-compliance can impact future funding.
Ohio State has developed a NIH DMS Policy Guide to help researchers learn more about the policy and ensure compliance. The Health Sciences Library and the University Libraries Research Commons are co-hosting an informational session on the new NIH requirement on October 19.
