Data Management
Research funders are placing increasing importance on both the proper management and sharing of research data. The Office of Science and Technology Policy released a memorandum in February requiring Federal agencies involved in research to create clear policies and plans for increasing public access to research data. Proper data management early in the research process reduces the potential for data loss and increases the possibility that your data can be used in the future by other researchers, and even by yourself. JHU Data Management Services supports the Johns Hopkins community throughout the research lifecycle by providing the following services:
