NIH encourages the use of established, subject-specific repositories. To select a repository relevant to your data consider:
- Is there a specific NIH repository named in the funding announcement?
- Is there a data repository specific to your discipline?
- If not, is there a general data repository you can use?
- The MOspace campus digital repository is another option. It’s best suited for small datasets in readily available formats such as Excel, PDF, or Word that can be shared under a Creative Commmons BY-NC-ND License
For additional guidance, see NIH supplemental information on Selecting a Repository
