    Element 7: For studies subject to the NIH Genomic Data Sharing Policy (GDS)

    Question

    For studies subject to the NIH Genomic Data Sharing Policy (GDS) (e.g., using NIH funds to generate large-scale human genomic data):

    1. Will you share all large-scale human genomic and associated data in a NIH-designated repository according to the accelerated timelines expected in the GDS Policy?
    2. Do you anticipate that when sharing you will be able to meet the expectations of the Institutional Certification in the GDS Policy?

    Guidance for Response

    A response of "Yes" is expected. If "No" must be responded, provide an explanation in Element 4.

    Information about Institutional Certifications for studies involving large-scale human genomic data can be found at the link above.

    For repository deposits for this genomic data, NIH-hosted genomic and phenotypic data repositories should be used. For additional information, see Accessing Genomic Data from NIH Repositories.
