Need help creating a data management plan as part of NIH requirements? We are here to help!

For the first time since 2003, NIH is implementing new data sharing requirements for funded researchers. These changes are sweeping and can vary across NIH centers. NACDA, the ICPSR repository for data on aging, is funded by NIH’s National Institute on Aging (NIA) to provide research support to the gerontological community. NACDA is hosting this free webinar to help researchers understand new NIH and NIA guidelines in preparing their data management plans related to gerontological funding applications. The webinar will provide an overview of data sharing requirements, how the NACDA repository can serve as a resource for your project, and feature examples and tools available from NACDA and ICPSR. Our guest speaker, Dr. Partha Bhattacharyya, will provide NIA’s perspective and expectations in relation to these new data sharing requirements.

Dr. Partha Bhattacharyya is the Director of The Office of Research Resources (ORR) and also serves as a Program Director in the Population and Social Processes (PSP) Branch within the Division of Behavioral and Social Research (BSR). As the Director for ORR, Dr. Bhattacharyya coordinates, directs, and implements initiatives related to research data and resources supported by BSR and the National Institute on Aging (NIA). He advises NIA leadership on new developments in data collection, analysis, and data sharing, supporting the NIA mission.


This webinar will feature:
- Tips on how to prepare your data for sharing
- Resources available from NACDA and ICPSR
- Guidance from Dr. Partha Bhattacharyya - Director of The Office of Research Resources (ORR) and Program Director in the Population and Social Processes (PSP) Branch within the Division of Behavioral and Social Research (BSR)

Participants will also have the opportunity to provide feedback and ask questions.

This webinar is free and open to the public.
