[Fresh FAIR Webinar] Bridging Data & Publications: Unlocking HEAL Research for Greater Impact

Research publications that thoroughly document and describe research methods, the data, and analyses within the publication along with comprehensively shared data maximize HEAL research impacts. This webinar will highlight the key elements to be included in HEAL-supported publications, focusing on transparency (i.e., ensuring the clarity and availability of underlying data for verification and reuse), data availability statements, and enabling secondary data use.

HEAL Stewards will discuss key elements researchers should include in HEAL-supported publications to meet NIH policies and maintain data transparency, defined as clarity and openness about underlying research data access and reuse. This presentation will include HEAL publication metrics and real-world examples from HEAL-funded research, highlighting effective strategies to meet NIH data-sharing requirements and integrate repository unique identifiers into manuscripts.

Attendees will learn best practices for referencing where a publication’s data can be accessed through persistent identifiers like DOIs, while also navigating journal data-sharing requirements. The session will conclude with an interactive Q&A featuring the presenters, offering participants the opportunity to engage directly with experts and address common publication challenges.

Participants will leave with actionable strategies to enhance transparency, reproducibility, and the overall impact of their HEAL research publications.
