The German National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI) initiative implemented by the German Research Foundation (DFG) aims to help overcoming this crisis by developing sustainable solutions for research data management (RDM). NFDI comprises domain specific consortia across all science disciplines. In the field of neuroscience, NFDI Neuroscience (NFDI-Neuro) contributes to the strengthening of systematic and standardized RDM in its research communities. NFDI-Neuro conducted a comprehensive survey amongst the neuroscience community to determine the current needs, challenges, and opinions with respect to RDM. The outcomes of this survey are presented here. The German neuroscience community perceives barriers with respect to RDM and data sharing mainly linked to (1) lack of data and metadata standards, (2) lack of community adopted provenance tracking methods, 3) lack of a privacy preserving research infrastructure for sensitive data (4) lack of RDM literacy and (5) lack of required time and resources for proper RDM. NFDI-Neuro aims to systematically address these barriers by leading and contributing to the development of standards, tools, and infrastructure and by providing training, education and support, as well as additional resources to its research community. The RDM work of NFDI-Neuro is conducted in close collaboration with its partner EBRAINS AISBL, the coordinating entity of the EU Flagship Human Brain Project, and its Research Infrastructure (RI) EBRAINS with more than 4500 registered users and developers from more than 30 countries. While NFDI-Neuro aims to address the national needs, it closely aligns with the international community and the topics of the Digital Europe Program and EU Data Spaces." keywords: - Neuroscience - "research data infrastructure" - "data sharing" - metadata - provenance - linkage - lineage - repositories - "research data management" - survey - community license: name: 'Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International' url: 'https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/' funding: - 'EU, H2020 Research and Innovation Action grants Human Brain Project SGA2 785907, SGA3 945539, VirtualBrainCloud 82642' - 'EU, European Innovation Council grant PHRASE 101058240 and ERC 683049' - 'Berlin Institute of Health & Foundation Charité' - 'Johanna Quandt Excellence Initiative' - 'DFG, SFB 1451 (project ID 431549029); SFB 1436 (project ID 425899996); SFB 1315 (project ID 327654276); SFB 936 (project ID 178316478); SFB-TRR 295 (project ID 424778381); SPP Computational Connectomics RI 2073/6-1, RI 2073/10-2, RI 2073/9-1; GRK 2150 (project 269953372)' - 'BMBF, 01GQ1905' - 'Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC)' - 'Federal State of Saxony-Anhalt, FKZ: I 88' references: - id: 'doi::tba' reftype: IsSupplementTo citation: Klingner C, Denker M, Grün S, Hanke M, Oeltze-Jafra S, Ohl FW, Radny J, Rotter S, Scherberger H, Stein A, Wachtler T, Witte OW, Ritter P (2022) Overcoming the Reproducibility Crisis - Results of the first Community Survey of the German National Research Data Infrastructure for Neuroscience.
