May 20, 2024

Announcement: The National Institutes of Health(NIH) is informing the extramural research community of planned changes to the Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR) instructions to address the NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy. Upon receiving approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), NIH will issue new DMS RPPR questions that align with the NIH Final Policy on Data Management and Sharing, to include updates on the status of data sharing, repositories and unique identifiers for data that have been shared.

Additional Guidance

The updated NIH RPPR Instruction Guide will be posted to the Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR) page upon approval from OIRA. NIH plans to implement the new questions for RPPRs submitted on or after October 1, 2024.
