Resources for Basic Experimental Studies Involving Humans (BESH)
Working on a study that might meet both the definition of basic research and the NIH definition of a clinical trial? Check out our new webpage on Basic Experimental Studies involving Humans (BESH). This webpage contains new resources to help investigators:
understand the definition of BESH,
differentiate between a measurement and an intervention,
answer the 4 key questions that determine if a study meets the NIH definition of a clinical trial – from a BESH perspective,
and more!
We have also updated our library of clinical trial case studies, designed to help you identify whether your study would be considered by N...

Help Us Understand How You Use Common Data Elements in NIH-Supported Research
The NIH Data Science Strategic plan drives us towards having accessible, well-organized, secure, and efficiently operated data resources to maximize the value of data generated from NIH funding. To meet the mark as we move forward, data need to be interoperable, interconnected, harmonized, standardized, and shared where and when appropriate. One way we hit the mark is through encouraging researchers to adopt Common Data Elements (CDEs).
CDEs foster rigor, facilitate data sharing, and allow multiple datasets to be integrated. They also help make data more FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable). Many diff...
