ICPSR is pleased to announce a new project in collaboration with the Center
for Large Data Research and Data Sharing in Rehabilitation (CLDR)
<http://rehabsciences.utmb.edu/cldr/> at the University of Texas Medical
Branch in Galveston to build a data archive that will support disability
and rehabilitation research.



The scientific communities conducting disability and rehabilitation
research generally lack the infrastructure to support data sharing. With
input from CLDR, this new project will leverage ICPSR’s expertise in
building data repository infrastructure to solve this problem. ICPSR will
develop and launch a website to access the disability and rehabilitation
data. The Archive of Data on Disability to Enable Policy and research
(ADDEP) will bring together existing disability data resources already
available at ICPSR with newly acquired data from rehabilitation medicine
and related areas. The project will also develop webinars, workshops,
presentations, and other training tailored to fit the needs of the
disability and rehabilitation research communities to strengthen and
support the data-sharing infrastructure.



For more information about this project please contact Alison Stroud, the
Archive Manager for ADDEP.



Researchers who have completed their rehabilitation studies are encouraged
to explore CLDR’s funding opportunities <CLDR-pilot-flyer.pdf> to have
their data collection archived with ADDEP.



*The new project (P2CHD065702) is funded by the NIH - National Institute of
Child Health and Human Development, in partnership with the National Center
for Medical Rehabilitation Research, the National Institute for
Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and the National Institute of Biomedical
Imaging and Bioengineering.*
