Data Management Plan Database

A Data Management Plan (DMP) describes how you will manage, store, secure, document, and share research data. DMPs can vary broadly across disciplines, methodologies, and data types. DMPs are a growing requirement for grants, and can also guide data practices for individuals and teams. DMP Assistant is a free webtool that guides you through drafting your DMP and the easiest way to start building a DMP. 

Our database gathers examples from across the world including DMPs from the Digital Research Alliance of Canada, National Institutes of Health (NIH), Qualitative DMP Competition, DataOne, Digital Curation Centre, Liber, the Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance, and UC San Diego Research Data Curation into one searchable, open-access platform.

Arizona State University; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP aims to collect wet-lab cellular data in order to assess to the role of developmentally partitioned proliferative components in brain tumor glioblastomas.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP aims to collect data from experiments "using a unique imaging system to probe how a polymeric jet injected into a surrounding Newtonian fluid becomes unstable."
University of Arizona; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP will use longitudinal speech data of cancer survivors from another study to develop a Machine Learning model that can increase participant compliance with health lifestyle habits.
McMaster University

This is a student data management record created by the vascular dynamics lab. Although it was created for students working within this lab and is structured for kinesiology related research, it has broad applicability as an exit protocol for labs working across Natural and Health Sciences. 

Broad Institute; Working Group on NIH DMSP Guidance
This DMP aims to collect virome data in order to characterize the biological features of viruses commonly found in humans.
Economic and Social Research Council; Digital Curation Centre (DCC)
This data management plan from the University of Leeds aims to create a website and a series of informational videos in memory of the Holocaust and its victims. This DMP also includes some reviewer feedback.
University of Warwick, NIH
This protocol was created for the VITAL trial which aims to investigate volatile and total intravenous anesthesia for major non-cardiac surgery. The main form of data collected is clinical data, and the management of said data is available in section 5 of the protocol.
Curtin University
This DMP aims to collect audio data, interviews, transcriptions, and interview notes. This data will be used in the efforts of identifying key principles for creating an effective Indigenous Youth program that will teach core emotional skills.
Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory; Defense Technical Information Centre
This DMP was created for the WIAMan Biomechanics team. They collected data for bio fidelity and skeletal injury risk assessment capability. The data collected includes specimen sensor data, rig sensor data, kinematics data, radiography, photography, videos, and documentation.
University of Manitoba; Digital Research Alliance of Canada

This DMP aims to collect clinical data for 1000 women for an observational study to assess the effectiveness of a cardiovascular screening program and identify any potential biomarkers that are predicative for cardiovascular disease.

Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
This DMP aims to collect observational data, text data, audio, fieldnotes, interview data, images, literature reviews, and exhibition/display analyses. The aim of this project is to use the mentioned data to analyze the practices of institutional decolonization.
University of Glasgow
This DMP aims to collect data from semi-structured interviews and a qualitative diary study. This project aims to evaluate how sexual wellbeing is experienced during adolescence and emerging adulthood.
N/A
This DMP aims to collect survey data from approximately 100 youth individuals with a primary physical disability diagnosis. This data will be stored as numeric and tabular data and will be used to examine the health and wellbeing aspect of physical activity in this demographic.
University of Zurich; ETH Zurich; University of Cambridge; Digital Curation Centre (DCC)
This data management plan aims to extend an existing study on the same topic by creating new data from surveys. This DMP also deals with sensitive identifiable data and anonymization practices.
