Speakers:
Toby Smith, Vice President for Policy, Association of American Universities (bio)
Philip Tarrant, Research Data Management Officer, Arizona State University (bio)
Toby Smith will share the work of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) and the Association of American Universities (AAU) on the project Accelerating Public Access to Research Data (APARD). Convening more than 30 institutions to develop national guidance on sharing data for public access, the work will soon culminate in a guide for institution leadership. Toby will share the opportunity societies have in supporting the culture change needed both nationally and internationally for efforts like APARD to be fully adopted.
Philip Tarrant is an active participant, along with his colleagues at Arizona State University, in the APARD project. He is a strong advocate and expert for data management and will share his tactical approach to integrating data management and sharing in ASU’s research practices and grants. APARD is helping support the culture change, but with Philip’s earlier work, ASU is an example of an institution making strategic changes in requirements for data management, investment in resources, and targeted budget guidance for grant that builds in the necessary funds that results in public access requirements.
