We offer personal consultations on data management topics at any time and teach workshops throughout the semester. In particular, we offer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One-hour <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsls.pitt.edu\/instruction\/introduction-research-data-management\/3074\">Introduction to Research Data Management<\/a> classes that are suitable for everyone, but may be especially helpful for new graduate students and project staff<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hsls.libguides.com\/data#s-lg-box-25477857\">In-depth workshops<\/a> on file-naming best practices, writing a data management plan for grant applications, and responsibly reusing data (or making your data available for reuse)<\/li>\n<li>One-on-one meetings on writing and implementing a data management and sharing plan (DMSP) for the NIH\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/hsls.libguides.com\/data\/nihdmsp\">data management and sharing policy<\/a>, which went into effect in January 2023<\/li>\n<li>Review of data management and sharing plans prior to submission with grant proposals. If you write your plan using one of the templates at DMPTool (dmptool.org), use the \u201crequest feedback\u201d tab to get comments and suggestions. Please allow us at least five business days for an initial review of your plan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Open science<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Researchers, clinicians, and patients all benefit when scientists can examine each other\u2019s work, build on existing data, and attempt to replicate experiments. The practice of making data, protocols, and scripts as publicly available as ethically and legally possible is called \u201copen science.\u201d But making your science open can be challenging, especially when you\u2019re setting up new workflows and procedures for the first time. HSLS can help you with open science topics including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Following the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/sdata201618\">FAIR principles<\/a> of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability when putting your data and materials online<\/li>\n<li>Locating, reusing, and citing data, and making your own data easily findable and citable<\/li>\n<li>Disseminating articles, preprints, datasets, protocols, and software through formal publication or open distribution (please see our <a href=\"https:\/\/hsls.libguides.com\/scholarly-communication\/where-should-i-publish#s-lg-box-28546035\">Where Should I Publish?<\/a> guide for more info)<\/li>\n<li>Managing complex projects on platforms like <a href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\">OSF<\/a> (Open Science Framework)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Computational methods and tools<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you write or use code as part of your research, we can help you access better development tools and methods. Topics we can help with include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Version control (tracking changes to files) with Git and GitHub<\/li>\n<li>Choosing an appropriate open-source license for your code<\/li>\n<li>Annotating research code, including both analysis scripts and standalone programs<\/li>\n<li>Finding training for the fundamentals of research programming, such as using Python (Jupyter Notebook), R, and the command line<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Note: We don\u2019t offer help with statistical analysis or packages like SPSS, but we maintain a <a href=\"https:\/\/hsls.libguides.com\/data\/statistics\">guide to statistical services on campus<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a question about data, please <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsls.pitt.edu\/data-services\/contact\">contact us<\/a>.
