Job Openings for Program Directors

EGRP seeks applications from researchers with training and experience in cancer epidemiology or related epidemiologic specialty areas for program director/officer positions. Those interested should apply to the appropriate NIH health scientist administrator global recruitment announcements between September 18-27, 2023.

NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing Effective on January 25, 2023

On January 25, 2023, the Final NIH Policy for Data Management and Sharing (DMS) came into effect for any NIH-funded research that will generate scientific data, regardless of the research grant budget size. EGRP has compiled information from NIH on preparing Data Management and Sharing (DMS) plans, research subject to both the NIH Genomic Data Sharing Policy and the new DMS Policy, and requesting and justifying costs for DMS.
