It is the policy of NIH that the results of research accomplished through Federal support should be made available to the public. To meet this requirement, NIH applicants are required to provide a Data Sharing Plan (Resource Sharing Plan), as described in the NIH Data Sharing Policy and SF424 (R&R) Application Guide.  If you are applying for nanotechnology-based research funding that requires a data sharing or data management plan, you may find useful information in the document caNanoLab & Data Sharing   that can be used in your research proposal. The suggested text is based on the requirements for NIH Data Sharing Plans, but please feel free to you can modify this text to fit the needs of your proposed research. For additional information about caNanoLab or to reference caNanoLab, please refer to Gaheen et al., 2013, caNanoLab: data sharing to expedite the use of nanotechnology in biomedicine. Comput. Sci. Discov. 6 014010 doi:10.1088/1749-4699/6/1/014010.

Authors who use caNanoLab should acknowledge caNanoLab in their work by properly referencing samples. The majority of caNanoLab sample record information is curated from publications. For these, please acknowledge the associated publication and caNanoLab either by citation or in the acknowledgements section of your publication.

Please alert Alert us by email of any publications that cite or acknowledge the use of caNanoLab to enable us to highlight it on our website. Below are options for including caNanoLab use in publications.

  • Example acknowledgement:   "The results <published or shown> here are in whole or partly based upon data made available through caNanoLab:  https://cananolab.nci.nihcancer.gov.  For For questions, please contact the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT)."
  • General caNanoLab citation: Please cite Cite the caNanoLab publication available at either Comput Sci Discover or Beilstein J Nanotechnol.
  • Citing published caNanoLab data: Please cite Cite the associated publication when using information from a sample record in caNanoLab. Publication information can be found under the Publication Tab on the left-hand side Navigation Tree for each sample.
  • Citing unpublished caNanoLab data (no associated publication record): Please cite Cite the caNanoLab sample page using the following format –Sample Name, caNanoLab Data Portal, National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, Maryland. World Wide Web (URL: https://cananolab.ncicancer.nih.gov). [Date data retrieved (month, year)].

  • The composition of the particle including nanoparticle entities (e.g. dendrimers, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, etc.), functionalizing entities (therapeutic, targeting, and diagnostics entities), and chemical associations (chemical associations, attachments, or encapsulations between nanoparticle entities or functionalizing entities).
  • Physical characterizations performed on a nanoparticle including size, molecular weight, shape, purity, etc.
  • In vitro characterizations performed on a nanoparticle including cytotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and general toxicity characterization results.
  • Protocols for characterizations performed on nanoparticles or general nanotechnology protocols from biomedical nanotechnology studies.
  • Publications from biomedical nanotechnology studies.
  • Synthesis information, including materials, functionalization, and purification.

caNanoLab provides secure access to data and requires authentication and authorization for access to non-public data.

...

In order to save a protocol, sample, or publication in caNanoLab, you must have an account belonging to the Data Curator group. To register for a login account, contact Application Support (NCIAppSupport@mail.nih.gov ). caNanoLab-Support@ISB-CGC.org. Once you have an account, you can log into caNanoLab and create an item and assign access to users and collaboration groups. If you are a Data Curator, you can make the item publicly-accessible. If not, you must submit the item for review, and when the Data Curator approves the item, it will be public.

(TBD: Will this diagram in the GUI be updated? I'm guessing it needs to include Synthesis, and it needs to say Creation & Create instead of Submission & Submit throughout, considering the old "no longer use" note in note in the Getting Started chapter.)
