This document is an example of a Data Management and Sharing Plan (DMS), required for research applications generating scientific data, in line with the NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy. It outlines how data will be managed, stored, and shared. If large-scale genomic data is involved, the Genomic Data Sharing Policy must also be addressed.

The plan should not exceed two pages and must follow the provided format, with italicized text removed. No specific form page is required.

It’s estimated that completing the plan will take 2 hours, including reviewing instructions, gathering data, and completing the document.
