NIH continues to advance adoption of open science through community engagement efforts and has worked to promote best practices for data sharing and reuse, while supporting a diverse data sharing ecosystem. NIH’s Data Management and Sharing Policy, effective January 2023, requires the submission of a Data Management and Sharing Plan and adherence to that Plan for funded research that results in the generation of scientific data. The Generalist Repository Ecosystem Initiative brings together seven generalist repositories to collaboratively focus on establishing cohesive and consistent capabilities, services, metrics, and social infrastructure, while supporting training and engagement activities to lower barriers to adopt best practices for data sharing and reuse. More broadly, NIH has also supported opportunities for its community to learn more about the challenges and potential of open science to encourage collaboration, consensus building, and new NIH-wide efforts. At Metascience 2023, NIH staff led discussions on the benefits of open science and how metascience can help evaluate the impact of these practices and policies. Continuing that conversation, this panel will also discuss how open science will change the methods, measures, and people engaged in science; disparities in adopting open science practices; open science infrastructure; and the costs of closed science.
