- while this document is specific to NDA, this informed consent language is likely useful researchers planning to share data in other repositories
Additional DMSP writing resources
DMPTool, an online tool for creating DMPs for various funders that comply with their requirements
Provides templates including a Word and PDF version of NIH-GEN DMSP (Forthcoming 2023)
- Note their disclaimer: "... researchers should always consult the program officers and policy documents directly for authoritative guidance."

https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-19-109.html#.XSc3Q6u_VWA.email
To register for your ORCID iD: https://orcid.org/register. ORCID states that registration takes 30 seconds.
2. Clinical Trials Registration
Effective January 18, 2017, all NIH-funded clinical trials must register their studies and report their results on ClinicalTrials.gov (NOTE: no longer just "applicable clinical trials")
https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-16-149.html
For PIs entering data in the system for the first time, you can send an email to register@clinicaltrials.gov and they will answer any questions you might have. They state that they will even teleconference and walk you through the process if necessary.
International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) likewise requires clinical trial registration as a condition of publication; while they recognize additional registries, ClinicalTrials.gov satisfies the ICMJE requirement as well

List of journal titles that adopted the ICMJE requirement: http://icmje.org/journals-following-the-icmje-recommendations/
A data sharing plan will also be a requirement of clinicaltrials.gov and ICMJE publication in the near future: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMe1705439#t=article
3. NIH Public Access Policy
Publications resulting from NIH-funded research must be available in PubMed Central (PMC) no later than 12 months after publication
Link to policy details: https://publicaccess.nih.gov/policy.htm
Some publishers handle this themselves, other times the author has to get directly involved
Journals that make the final published version of all NIH-funded articles available in PMC without author involvement are known as Method A journals.
To find Method A journals: https://publicaccess.nih.gov/submit_process_journals.htm
Journals that make the final published version of NIH-funded articles available in PMC at the author's request (and often requires that you have paid for the open access option) are known as Method B journals.
Journals that do NOT make the manuscript available in PMC, requiring the author to handle the submission, are known as Method C journals.
Link to NIHMS to enter manuscript: https://www.nihms.nih.gov/db/sub.cgi
Journals that make the final published version of NIH-funded articles available in PMC but require the author to complete the submission are known as Method D journals.
Ultimately, the Principal Investigator (PI) is responsible for ensuring compliance of publications arising from his/her grant
