Data Management and Sharing

Effective January 25, 2023, NIH has issued the Data Management and Sharing (DMS) policy to promote the sharing of scientific data. Data management is the process of validating, organizing, protecting, maintaining, and processing scientific data to ensure the accessibility, reliability, and quality of the data for its users. Proper data management helps maintain scientific rigor and research integrity. Keeping good track of data and associated documentation lets researchers and collaborators use data consistently and accurately.

Below you will find links to both the NIH website as well as the Emory website for Data Management and Sharing and the requirments for grant submission. 

If you use ICI services, we ask that you include an acknowledgment in your publications. Your acknowledgments and reporting of publications are critical for continued microscopy support and subsidies.

It's imperative that your published work is truly representative of your science. Please aim for the highest standards of rigor and reproducibility by reviewing these comprehensive webpages and articles. Reach out if you have any questions.
