Considerations, Options, and Resources for Data Management in PHS Funded Research

or evidence of possible research misconduct”. Core to ORI’s mission is the development and implementation of education and outreach activities that aid PHS-funded research institutions in their efforts “to teach the responsible conduct of research, promote research integrity, prevent research misconduct, and…to respond effectively to allegations of research misconduct” (65 F.R. 30600, 30601). ORI’s Research on Research Integrity assistance program contributes to this mission by supporting projects that advance the evolving field of research integrity and build the knowledge base in research misconduct, research integrity, and prevention. Responsible management of data throughout the research lifecycle is key to ensuring the integrity, reliability, and availability of data acquired in connection with PHS-funded research. ORI seeks to fund, through this opportunity, research on responsible data management and stewardship practices and the development of practical approaches, considerations, and resources that can be used by researchers, research administrators, and research institutions to improve data management and stewardship practices.
