NIH is collaborating with the Federal Demonstration Partnership to engage researchers in an NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Pilot, and they need your input on templates created to help applicants write a DMS Plan.

Visit the Federal Demonstration Partnership website to access either of the two pilot templates. As an NCI researcher, you can use these templates in writing a DMS Plan to submit with a funding application, or to get a better understanding of what we expect to see in your plan.

To help you decide which one to use, keep in mind that the “alpha” template limits the need for free-text entry, while the “bravo” template includes prompts with the option to add free-text entries.

Try out a template and let us know what you think.

Submit your feedback through a Qualtrics survey.
