Establishing incentives and changing cultures to support data access

Establishing incentives and changing cultures to support data access This study seeks to understand the factors that help and hinder researchers in making data more widely available, and to investigate the need to create new incentives to facilitate data sharing. In addition to a review of previous work on this topic, the research encompassed a web survey, expert interviews and focus group discussions with researchers and data managers. The report makes a series of recommendations to funders and research leaders about how they could work to build incentives and embed cultural change. Wellcome Trust
