Document iconThis subgroup works to compile existing documentation and develop additional materials for project-specific Data Management Plans (DMPs). It will create and publish resources for generating DMPs that support research data management throughout the data lifecycle. The subgroup looks for collaborative opportunities with other groups to better understand the needs of biomedical researchers and labs.
 

2023 Goals

  1. Explore next steps for the subgroup based on the LMA research community needs
  2. Share relevant NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy discussions, questions, concerns, and needs from respective meetings and LMA institutions
