Data Standards for Behavioral and Brain Sciences Webinar Series

Federal funders require data sharing with increasing attention to discoverability. Beyond compliance, there are numerous compelling reasons to share data in a way that facilitates increased searchability, effectiveness, and rigor of science. This webinar series is designed to educate FABBS members on the expectation of funders, the opportunities afforded by sharing, examples of effective databases/repositoriesand clear steps forward to advance individual efforts and interoperability of data.
