Share NIH Data
Depositing National Institute of Health-Funded Data at ICPSR
NIH has a new Data Management & Sharing Policy effective on January 25, 2023, which requires a data management and sharing plan for all grant proposals. Read the full policy, Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing for more information. ICPSR has prepared the following information as a reference when planning an NIH grant proposal for researchers wishing to work with ICPSR.
Please note that ICPSR supports the archiving and disseminating of data collected through NIH-funded projects and is home to more than 1,000 NIH-funded data collections. Several of ICPSR’s topical archives and projects offer dedicated support for certain NIH-funded data:
- The National Addiction & HIV Data Archive Program (NAHDAP)
- The Archive of Data on Disability to Enable Policy and research (ADDEP)
- Data Sharing for Demographic Research (DSDR)
- The National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA)
- Social, Behavioral, & Economic COVID Coordinating Center (SBE CCC)
- The National Neighborhood Data Archive (NaNDA)
