Overview
You asked, we listened! The April 2023 Fresh FAIR webinar featured Mary Hannah Currin of the HEAL Data Stewardship Group diving into specifics and examples for developing a HEAL-compliant Data Management & Sharing Plan (DMSP), including examples for different study and data types. A DMSP is essential for investigators to plan for the long-term use and reuse of study data, thereby increasing the broader impact within the HEAL Data Ecosystem and maximizing the potential for life-saving discoveries. Currin also emphasized how you can take advantage of HEAL Data Ecosystem resources to assist with the process of writing a DMSP. The presentation was be followed by a live Q&A, which included perspectives from DMSP experts.
