Description:Word count (max 200):Section 5 – Data managementResponsible data management is part of good research. To promote effective and efficient data management, data sharing and data reuse, NWO expects researchers to carefully manage data resulting from NWO-funded projects and prospectively plan for which data will be preserved and shared. After a proposal has been awarded funding, grantees are required to elaborate the data management section into a detailed data management plan explaining how research data and other results emerging from the project will be stored and made findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR). The plan must be submitted to NWO via ISAAC within four months after the proposal has been awarded funding. For more information see: nwo.nl/en/research-data-management.5.1 Will this project involve re-using existing research data?? Yes: Are there any constraints on its re-use?? No: Have you considered re-using existing data but discarded the possibility? Why?If no, please briefly explain why; if yes, state any constraints on re-use of existing data if there are any. 5.2 Will data be collected or generated that are suitable for reuse?? Yes: Please answer questions 5.3 and 5.4? No: Please elaborate.If no, please explain why the project will not result in reusable data or in data that cannot be stored or data that for other reasons are not relevant for reuse. 5.3 After the project has been completed, how will the data be stored for the long-term and made available for the use by third parties? Are there possible restrictions to data sharing or embargo reasons? Please state these here.Description:5.4 Will any costs (financial and time) related to data management and sharing/preservation be incurred?? Yes: Then please be sure to specify the associated expenses in the budget table of this proposal.? No: All the necessary resources (financial and time) to store and prepare data for sharing/preservation are or will be available at no extra cost.Section 6 – Software sustainabilityNWO expects that any software developed as a result of this call will be made, as much as possible, freely and sustainably available for reuse. In this section, you are asked to think in advance how any developed software will be licensed and published so that it can be made openly available for reuse. After a proposal has been awarded, the main applicant should elaborate the software sustainability section into a software sustainability plan. The plan must be submitted to NWO via ISAAC within four months after the proposal has been awarded funding.6.1 Will software be generated during the project? ? Yes: Please answer questions 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5? No 6.2 How will the software be licensed and be made available for re-use?6.3 What measures are needed to make the software appropriate for long-term (re-)use by third parties??6.4 How large do you expect the community that will potentially use the software to be, and do you expect outside contributors to the software?6.5 What expertise do you expect to be needed to make the software appropriate for long-term re-use by third parties? Is this expertise available?Section 7 – Other grant applications with overlapping contentIf you, or any of your team members, have submitted any other proposals with overlapping content, whether to NWO or another funder, please give details of these proposals below. For each proposal, please provide:(i) the title of the proposal;(ii) funding agency and call;(iii) budget applied for;(iv) date of submission;(v) estimated decision date;(vi) difference with regard to this research proposal (%);(vii) description of the difference.Description: Signature?By submitting this application form, I declare that I and all the individuals involved in this proposals satisfy the nationally and internationally accepted standards for scientific conduct as stated in the Netherlands Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (The Association of Universities in the Netherlands).?By submitting this application form, I declare that the team members named in this form have read and agreed with the submission of this proposal and have agreed with their role and intended contribution to the project, should this be awarded. ?I have completed this application form truthfully.Name main applicant:Place:Date:Please submit this application via ISAAC, in PDF format.
