Wellcome and Springer Nature Introduce Pilot for Making Research Datasets Available
Wellcome and Springer Nature are embarking on a pilot to help researchers by making research datasets discoverable and available to the wider research community. Open to “datasets underpinning research articles from Wellcome-funded studies and from researchers at Wellcome-funded institutes,” the pilot will run over 6 to 12 months, and Wellcome will “support the costs associated with its funded researchers using Springer Nature’s Research Data Support services for an initial fixed number of datasets.” Additionally, “Data can be associated with a submission or publication to any peer-reviewed journal, and is not limited to Springer Nature journals; authors will remain in control of their data, including choice of Creative Commons license which ensure datasets are open access and available for re-use.”For more information, read the press release.
