<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>In working with a researcher who studies the airborne transmission of pathogens, I'm wondering about the ethics/rules around the public sharing of data resulting from such biosafety-related research.</div><div><br></div><div>I've been looking around for clear guidance, and the most I've found so far is a vague statement from Nature: "It is a condition of publication that authors deposit their data in an
appropriate repository, and agree to make the data publicly available
without restriction, excepting reasonable controls related to human
privacy or biosafety."</div><div><br></div><div>Anyone else here have more clear guidance from an institution/funder/journal that I've been unable to find?</div><div><br></div><div>I can ask our IBC contact here on campus, but thought I'd ask the hivemind first :)<br></div><div><br></div><div>Jon<br>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:12.8px"><font size="2" face="arial" color="#000000">Jonathan Petters Ph.D.<br>Assistant Director, Data Management & Curation Services<br></font></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><font size="2" face="arial" color="#000000">Data Services, University Libraries<br>Virginia Tech<br>(540) 232-8682<br><a href="https://lib.vt.edu/research-teaching/data-services.html" target="_blank">https://lib.vt.edu/research-teaching/data-services.html</a><br></font></div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><font size="2" face="arial" color="#000000">ORCID: 0000-0002-0853-5814<br></font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
