This Neuroimaging data management plan (DMP) template is designed to be completed in two phases: Phase 1 questions probe at a high-level, seeking information about the general direction of the study. Normally, researchers will be able to respond to phase 1 questions at the outset of a project. Phase 2 questions seek greater detail. It is understood that these answers will often depend on the outcome of several steps in the research project, such as: a literature review, imaging protocol design and experimental design, or running multiple pilot subjects and interpreting the outcome. As these details become known, the DMP can and should be revisited. This approach underscores that DMPs are living documents that evolve throughout a research project.
