Submit Datasets

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) has supported data collection from participants in epidemiology studies and clinical trials for over six decades. A formal data sharing policy was published in 2023 to ensure that these datasets are placed in a Data Repository to be shared with qualified investigators.

The BioLINCC Data Repository is managed by NHLBI staff and includes individual level data from numerous Institute-supported clinical trials and observational studies. Data are accessed through BioLINCC's Data Request Form. The following worksheet is provided to assist with the curation and submission of Study data to the NHLBI Data Repository. Section 4.0 of the BioLINCC Handbook provides additional information on preparing and submitting datasets and documentation to the NHLBI.

The Study should contact their NHLBI Program Official for specific submission requirements and timelines.
