18. established researchers don’t
have good data sharing practices

19. disproportionately withhold from
young, successful.
disproportionately withhold
cancer data.

furthermore, won’t magically fix itself:
early career sharing selfies, but not data:

21. incentives aren’t enough

29. the solution is mandates

30. and i’ve got some great data:
mandates change people’s minds

31. in 2011, about 12 journals in
biology adopted a
Joint Data Archiving Policy

32. studied the effect:
4102 corresponding authors
over 3 years
across 45 journals

35. once they do it, it changes their minds

37. they don’t resent it, over the long run
they embrace it

41. 3. data creator

42. Data Science needs Data
and lots of it.

43. The more openly and ubiquitously
available, the better.

44. The literature is a great data source.
