As Yale simplifies some of its storage options, we encourage you to monitor these updates on the <a href="https://yaleedu.sharepoint.com/sites/CollaborationCounts/" target="_blank">ITS Collaboration Counts page</a>.</p> <p>If you need to compute against your data, contact the <a href="https://research.computing.yale.edu/" target="_blank">Yale Center for Research Computing.</a></p> </details> <details> <summary>Where can I find data to reuse for an assignment, project, or research study?</summary> <p>Data can be found in many places, such as in library databases (e.g., PubMed) as supplementary materials in journal articles and in data repositories.</p> <p>Check out our <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/research-data/find-datasets/" target="_blank">"Find Data"</a> and <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/research-data/reuse-data/" target="_blank">"Re(Use) Data"</a> guides to learn more.</p> </details> <details> <summary>What’s research data management?</summary> <p>Research data management is the care and maintenance of data produced during research. It starts when your project starts, and continues through the end of the project, and sometimes extends beyond that. It has many components, but in summary, it involves planning, organizing, documenting, storing, securing, assessing, citing, and sharing your data alongside your research.</p> <p>Learn more on our <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/research-data/manage-data" target="_blank">"Manage Data"</a> page.</p> </details> <details> <summary>What are Yale’s expectations for how I manage my data?</summary> <p>Review Yale’s <a href="https://your.yale.edu/policies-procedures/policies/6001-research-data-materials-policy" target="_blank">Research Data and Materials Policy (6001)</a>, and ensure you know your data’s classification status — you can take <a href="https://cybersecurity.yale.edu/know-your-risk/data-classification-questionnaire" target="_blank">this questionnaire</a> to find out. Whether your data is low, medium, or high risk determines where you can store it, who can use it (and how), and how you should manage it.</p> <p>Additionally, if applicable, review other standards and requirements, such as <a href="https://hipaa.yale.edu/policies-procedures-forms" target="_blank">HIPAA</a> and <a href="https://your.yale.edu/research-support/human-research-protection-program" target="_blank">IRB</a> policies.</p> <p>Learn more on our <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/research-data/manage-data" target="_blank">"Manage Data"</a> page.</p> </details> <details> <summary>I want to learn skills to better work with my data. Where should I start?</summary> <p>Many people learn programming languages such as Python and R to work with data. Others use software, such as Excel, other spreadsheet applications (e.g., LibreOffice Calc, Google Sheets), SPSS, SAS, Tableau, and many others.</p> <p>In addition to resources at and provided by Yale (including <a href="https://schedule.yale.edu/calendar/medical-workshops" target="_blank">classes at the medical library</a>, on <a href="https://learning.linkedin.com/" target="_blank">LinkedIn Learning</a>, and at other places on campus, such as the <a href="https://library.yale.edu/help-and-research-support/research-support/statlab" target="_blank">StatLab</a>, <a href="https://medicine.yale.edu/cbds/" target="_blank">Yale Center for Biomedical Data Science</a>, and <a href="https://research.computing.yale.edu/" target="_blank">Yale Center for Research Computing</a>), view more recommended resources on our <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/research-data/learn-work-data" target="_blank">"Learn to Work with Data"</a> page.</p> </details> </div> <div class="column-40"> <h3> Upcoming Training</h3> <div id="api_fortnight_cid4970_8161_5105_11314_10042_4977_5018_4960_iid457"> </div> <script src="https://schedule.yale.edu/api_events.php?m=fortnight&cid=4970_8161_5105_11314_10042_4977_5018_4960&audience=&c=&d=7850-8529-8528-35048-35049-35047-48170-36575-28023-51122-42264-32958-32959-28816-37226-28032-40821-43032-5525-5533&simple=ul_date&context=object&format=js"> <!--//--><![CDATA[// ><!-- //--><!]]> </script></div> </div> <p> </p> </div></div></div> </div> <div class="clearfix"> <nav class="links node-links clearfix"></nav> </div> </article> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </main> <footer id="section-footer" class="section section-footer" role="contentinfo"> <div id="zone-footer-wrapper" class="zone-wrapper zone-footer-wrapper clearfix"> <div id="zone-footer" class="zone zone-footer clearfix container-12"> <div class="grid-2 region region-footer-first" id="region-footer-first"> <div class="region-inner region-footer-first-inner"> <div class="footer-logo"><a href="http://www.yale.edu" class="y-icons y-yale y-mark"><span class="element-invisible">Yale</span></a></div> </div> </div> <div class="grid-10 region region-footer-second" id="region-footer-second"> <div class="region-inner region-footer-second-inner"> <p class="copyright"> <a href="https://usability.yale.edu/web-accessibility/accessibility-yale">Accessibility at Yale</a> · <a href="http://www.yale.edu/privacy-policy">Privacy policy</a> <br> Copyright © 2025 Yale University · All rights reserved </p> <div class="block block-block block-plain footer-nav block-206 block-block-206 odd block-without-title" id="block-block-206"> <div class="block-inner clearfix"> <div class="content clearfix"> <p> </p> <p>333 Cedar St, New Haven, CT 06510 • (203) 785-5359 • <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/about/land-acknowledgment">Land Acknowledgment</a></p> <p><a href="/about/contact">Contact</a> • <a href="/find/staff-links">Staff Links</a> • <a href="/cas">Staff Login</a> • <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/find/staff-links/directory">Directories</a> • <a href="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/sites/default/files/scan007896.pdf">Map</a> | <a href="https://medicine.yale.edu/">YSM</a> • <a href="https://www.ynhh.org/">YNHH</a> • <a href="https://nursing.yale.edu/">YSN</a> • <a href="https://library.yale.edu/">Yale Library</a></p> <script src="https://harvey.med.yale.edu/static/scripts/js/embed.min.js"></script> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></footer> </div> <div class="region region-page-bottom" id="region-page-bottom"> <div class="region-inner region-page-bottom-inner"> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> <!--//--><![CDATA[//><!-- (function() { var sz = document.createElement('script'); sz.type = 'text/javascript'; sz.async = true; sz.src = '//siteimproveanalytics.com/js/siteanalyze_66356571.js'; var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(sz, s); })(); //--><!]]> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://library.medicine.yale.edu/sites/default/files/js/js_JMVekk522eOkII71K9F5yD4Su-iRqPdTR_-LxjPAtMk.js"></script> </body> </html>
