Proposed Collection: Data and Specimen Hub (DASH), 0925-NEW, Eunice
Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development (NICHD), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: The NICHD Data and Specimen
Hub (DASH) is being established by NICHD as a data sharing mechanism
for biomedical research investigators. It will serve as a centralized
resource for investigators to store and access de-identified data from
studies funded by NICHD. The potential for public benefit to be
achieved through sharing research study data for secondary analysis is
significant. NICHD DASH supports NICHD's mission to ensure that every
person is born healthy and wanted, that women suffer no harmful effects
from reproductive processes, and that all children have the chance to
achieve their full potential for healthy and productive lives, free
from disease or disability, and to ensure the health, productivity,
independence, and well-being of all people through optimal
rehabilitation. Data sharing and reuse will promote testing of new
hypotheses from data already collected, facilitate trans-disciplinary
collaboration, accelerate scientific findings and enable NICHD to
maximize the return on its investments in research.
Anyone can access NICHD DASH to browse and view descriptive
information about the studies and data archived in NICHD DASH without
creating an account. Users who wish to submit or request research study
data must register for an account.
Information will be collected from those wishing to create an
account, sufficient to identify them as unique Users. Those submitting
or requesting data will be required to provide additional supporting
information to ensure proper use and security of NICHD DASH data. The
information collected is limited to the essential data required to
ensure that the management of Users in NICHD DASH is efficient and the
sharing of data among investigators is effective. The primary uses of
the information collected from Users by NICHD will be to:
Communicate with the Users with regards to their data
submission or requests
Monitor data submissions and data requests
Notify interested recipients of updates to data stored in
NICHD DASH
Help NICHD understand the use of NICHD DASH data by the
research community
There is no plan to publish the data collected under this request.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 142.
