collaborative approaches for data management and sharing through the inclusion of generalist repositories in the NIH data ecosystem. GREI also aims to better enable search and discovery of NIH-funded data in generalist repositories. </p><p><a class="pdf-link" href="https://zenodo.org/records/8350509"><strong>Download the GREI fact sheet</strong></a></p><div class="img-box-right"><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/GREI2.png" data-entity-uuid="f2caf163-9b66-4763-a826-db0fec9633c3" data-entity-type="file" alt width="748" height="436"></div><p>GREI’s mission is twofold:</p><p style="margin-left:20px;">The primary mission is to establish a common set of cohesive and consistent capabilities, services, metrics, and social infrastructure across generalist repositories.</p><p style="margin-left:20px;">The secondary mission is to raise general awareness and help researchers adopt FAIR principles to better share and reuse data.</p><p>ODSS supports this initiative to enhance the biomedical data ecosystem and help researchers find and share data from NIH-funded studies in generalist repositories.
