Can I collaborate with researchers at other institutions?

In most cases, all researchers listed on a single application must be affiliated with the same institution. For collaboration across institutions, researchers from each institution much submit separate applications to access the restricted data. In their research descriptions, the Investigators for each request should mention that they are collaborating with researchers at the other institution(s) so that ICPSR staff can process the applications together. Data files and data subsets may NOT be shared between individuals at different institutions, even if all parties have received ICPSR approval to access the data.
