Be prepared! Writing a data management or data sharing plan

Abstract

Researchers are increasingly required to write a data management or data sharing plan to accompany their research proposals to funding sources such as NIH, NSF, and more. In this workshop we will provide an overview of what kinds of information should be included in a data management or sharing plan, along with best practices and resources to help with writing a plan. We’ll have time at the end for questions, or you can also begin writing a plan for an upcoming proposal.

This workshop will be most useful for researchers in the health sciences and STEM disciplines who are early career researchers, researchers who have not yet had to write a data management plan, first-time grant applicants, and graduate students.

We encourage you to check out the other HS-STEM Summer Data Workshops, too. Each workshop can be attended independently. Slides and recordings will be archived afterwards at https://guides.lib.umich.edu/datamanagement/workshops.
