In this episode, Shannon and Briana delve into the recently published NSF funded Realities of Academic Data Sharing (RADS) Initiative's report titled, "Making Research Data Publicly Accessible: Estimates of Institutional & Researcher Expenses." The report provides a retrospective analysis of the costs incurred by six academic institutions in making research data publicly accessible and offers recommendations and considerations for researchers, institutions, and funding agencies.
