The NIH makes the results of the research it supports and conducts available to the public enabling data reuse, increasing transparency, and the facilitation of reproducibility of research results.
While open-access data can be browsed online or downloaded without prior permission, controlled-access data can only be obtained after the requestor has been authorized and IRB approval is required for some.
- The Database Of Genotypes And Phenotypes (DBGAP)
- NIDDK Specimen And Data Repository
- National Institute Of Mental Health Data Archive (NDA)
The NIH also provides a searchable list of more than 100 affiliated repositories containing scientific data that can be accessed by researchers, and more than 25 containing genomic data. The list provides links to information about how to request access to the datasets.
