The new policy is in effect, and applies to new grant applications, competitive renewals, or competitive revisions. In brief: 

• Data sharing now pertains to all researchers with no budget minimum.
• Applications, renewals, or revisions must include a data management and sharing plan.
• Data must be shared at time of publication or by the end of the performance period, whichever is sooner.

The Cancer Research Data Commons (CRDC) is home to a collection of data commons and cloud resources that host datasets from NCI-funded research and make those datasets accessible to the research community. Learn more about submitting and accessing data and using CRDC tools for your research.
