Join our Data Visualization Specialist, Brian Wisniewski, for a virtual workshop on the basics of Data Visualization. Hosted by the Research Commons, this workshop will break down what data visualization is and why it is important. Examples, tips, tools (Overviewing R, Tableau, Excel), and resources will be shared, with the aim of enabling participants to realize data visualization in their own lives. Join us to broaden your outlook on what data viz is and what it can do for you!

Q&A on the NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy (Virtual Event)
Do you have questions about the new NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy? This virtual office-hours style event features representatives from six campus offices with expertise in different areas impacted by the DMS policy.
Experts from each area will host a breakout room and participants are encouraged to drop in each room with their questions and actively participate in the discussions. Questions may also be submitted in advance through the registration form or by contacting datamanagement@osu.edu.
Areas represented include:
- NIH DMS Policy 101
- What to share and where to share it
- How to write a DMS plan with DMPTool
- Proposal preparation and budgeting for allowable data costs
- Special topics
- Sharing human research participant data
- Secure data storage
- Intellectual property and commercialization
This event is ideal for researchers and teams who currently receive NIH funding or may apply in the future, as well as staff who support NIH-funded researchers. Registration is required, but participants are welcome to come and go as their time allows during the 90-minute session.
Can’t make the Q&A event? Send your questions to datamanagement@osu.edu and check out the Ohio State NIH DMS Policy Guide for the latest updates. This event will not be recorded.
About the NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy
The policy will apply to all new funding applications on or after January 25, 2023 regardless of funding amount. Applicants must submit a DMS plan describing how they will make their data publicly available prior to the conclusion of the award period. Compliance with the submitted and accepted plan will be assessed and non-compliance can impact future funding.

Developmental brain imaging of human cognition Webinar
Join us for the November Crane Research Forum with Dr. Zeynep Saygin, assistant professor in the Department of Psychology at The Ohio State University.
How does uniquely human cognition emerge in the brain? The developmental cognitive neuroscience laboratory at OSU uses noninvasive brain imaging (MRI) to study newborns, infants, and young children before and as they start school. Dr. Zeynep Saygin will discuss recent studies on how individual variability in language, executive function, and reading emerges in the brain. She will also discuss clinical and educational applications, including how early brain data can be used to make individualized predictions about how a child will develop, and ways that this research can inform preventative and intervention research and vice-versa.
Dr. Saygin’s research looks at how specific brain areas become responsible for particular cognitive functions, and how it changes with traumatic injury. Her research has shown that neuroanatomical scans alone can predict a child’s brain function and outcomes including later reading development and dyslexia. Her goal is to offer powerful new strategies to understand, diagnose, and predict treatment outcomes for neurological disorders.

Requests made two weeks before the event will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.
Fathers matter: The importance of father involvement on child development in early childhood Webinar
Join us for the October Crane Research Forum with Dr. Susan Yoon, Crane faculty affiliate and associate professor in the College of Social Work at The Ohio State University.
Fathers can make unique and important contributions to their children’s well-being and positive development. Through a recent project funded by the U.S. Administration for Children and Families, Dr. Susan Yoon will present findings on child and family resilience among families living in households with low income. Specifically, she will discuss distinct patterns of father involvement and their roles in promoting social, behavioral, and cognitive development in their children during early childhood.
Dr. Yoon’s work focuses on promoting resilience and well-being in children who have experienced childhood trauma, including child maltreatment. She also wants to identify what promotes or hinders the development of resiliency following child maltreatment. Dr. Yoon has been recognized for her outstanding contributions to research in the field of child maltreatment from the American Psychological Association.

NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy Webinar Series Part 2
The NIH Office of Science Policy (OSP) and the Office of Extramural Research (OER) invite you to join them for an informative webinar series focused on the new NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy which goes into effect on January 25, 2023. This policy reinforces NIH’s longstanding commitment to making the research it funds available to the public and sets the baseline expectation that sharing data is a fundamental component of the research process.
Registration is required separately for each webinar.
- Thursday, August 11; 1:30 – 3:00 PM EST
Understanding the New NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy
In this first webinar of the series, you will learn about DMS policy expectations, the applicability of the policy, how to prepare a Data Management and Sharing Plan, and considerations for sharing data responsibly.
August 11 – Part 1 – DMS Webinar Registration
- Thursday, September 22; 1:30 – 3:00 PM EST
Diving Deeper into the New NIH Data Management and Sharing Policy
In this second webinar of the series, we will expand upon the information presented in the first webinar and dive deeper into topics including privacy protections for data from human participants and justifiable limitations on sharing data.

The Pitfalls of Data Portals: A Look at Cross-National Homicide Rates Webinar
On Wednesday, September 8, the QMC will host Dr. Manuel Eisner of the University of Cambridge for a presentation on using data provided by open-access portals (e.g., World Health Organization, UNICEF). Dr. Eisner is the Director of the Violence Research Centre at the University of Cambridge and has published over 100 journal articles and book chapters on interpersonal violence.
International organizations provide data on education, health, and child well-being and data from such portals help researchers address important research questions, but sometimes how the data are used leads to bad science. Join us for this Zoom presentation on the applicability and perils of using data provided by open-access portals. We’ll send a reminder email and Zoom link the day before the presentation to all registrants.
