REPOSITORY SERVICES FOR THE NICHD DATA AND SPECIMEN HUB (DASH)

尤尼斯·肯尼迪·施莱弗国家儿童健康和人类发展研究所（NICHD）支持从众多研究的参与者那里收集数据和生物标本。这些特征明确的数据和一些相关标本是由公共资金产生的宝贵科学资源。NICHD建立了数据和标本中心（DASH），作为数据和标本共享机制，使研究人员能够组织、存储和挖掘来自NICHD资助的研究的去识别数据，以供二次研究使用。在某些情况下，DASH还提供访问与NICHD DASH中存档的研究数据相关的剩余生物标本。

The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has supported collection of data and biospecimens from participants in numerous research studies. These well-characterized data and some associated specimens are valuable scientific resources that were generated with public funds. NICHD established the Data and Specimen Hub (DASH) as a data and specimen sharing mechanism that enables investigators to organize, store, and mine de-identified data from NICHD funded research studies for secondary research use. In some cases, DASH also provides access to residual biospecimens associated with studies that have research data archived in the NICHD DASH. The NICHD DASH was created to provide a validated site to promote dissemination of data and specimens from NICHD-funded studies for secondary analysis. DASH’s flexible architecture is designed to archive diverse data types and formats from NICHD’s broad portfolio in a manor that promotes FAIR data sharing principles: findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability.
