NIH Awards 28 Supplements to Advance Software Tools for Open Science
In 2020 the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Data Science Strategy (ODSS) and 24 institutes and centers (ICs) at NIH announced a notice for administrative supplements to enhance software tool development for open science (NOT-OD-20-073). Twenty-eight awards were made in the fall of 2020 to principal investigators at 26 different institutions across the United States.
These supplements will invest in research software tools with recognized value in a scientific community to enhance their impact by leveraging best practices in software development and advances in cloud computing. The supplements are intended to support collaborations between biomedical scientists and software engineers to enhance the design, implementation, and “cloud-readiness” of research software.
Through these awards, the NIH Office of Data Science Strategy and a trans-NIH team will help researchers who have developed scientifically valuable software to make tools sustainable, contribute to open science, and take advantage of new data science and computing paradigms.
