Dissertation Project

Focus Statement

The Open Data movement strives to make data from publicly funded research more publicly available. As more researchers are being required by funders to share data, how are researchers meeting these expectations? Using interviews with U.s. researchers and a content analysis of data sharing guidance, this project explores researchers; data sharing experiences.


Planned Completion: January 2023


Supervisor: Professor Pia Borlund
