Data Renewal Request
Researchers who receive datasets through BioLINCC or through its precedent program (NHLBI/LADS) must either destroy the data at the end of their 3-year data use agreement or they may choose to apply for a renewed agreement for each additional three year period of desired data access. Researchers who are approaching the end of their existing 3-year agreement who wish to renew may do so here.
You must be a registered user of this website to apply for an extension. Note that evidence of current IRB approval for the use of the data is required for renewal.
Upon receipt of your completed application and IRB approval statement, a Research Material Distribution Agreement (RMDA) will be generated for you and made available for download from this website. You will be asked to download/print this agreement, to obtain the necessary signatures and to upload a copy of the signed version, which will then be countersigned by the NHLBI representative upon approval and provided back to you for your records.
