ResumoSharing biomedical research and health care data is important but difficult.Recognizing this, many initiatives facilitate, fund, request, or require researchers to share their data [1][2][3][4][5] .These initiatives address the technical aspects of data sharing, but rarely focus on incentives for key stakeholders [6].Academic health centers (AHCs) have a critical role in enabling, encouraging, and rewarding data sharing.The leaders of medical schools and academic-affiliated hospitals can play a unique role in supporting this transformation of the research enterprise.We propose that AHCs can and should lead the transition towards a culture of biomedical data sharing.
