WE'VE MOVED! 

The DOSI website is in the process of being migrated to either myRESEARCHpath or the Office of the Vice President for Research and Innovation website, depending on the content. We apologize in advance for any disruption this transition may cause.

We're pleased to announce that the 100-level RCR content has already been migrated and is now available on myRESEARCHpath! Please come visit us at our new location: 100-level RCR training for Duke faculty and staff engaged in research. Don't forget to update your bookmarks accordingly. We anticipate the DOSI website will be retired and no longer accessible in fall 2023 once all content has been moved.

The RCR Research Communication and Data Dissemination online course was written to be inclusive of the biomedical sciences, social sciences, and physical sciences.  The content is presented with interactive graphics, text-based activities, short videos, and discipline specific scenarios.  It was developed by Epigeum, Oxford University Press in collaboration with academic institutions. 

The RCR Research Communication and Data Dissemination course includes 3 modules:

            1) Authoring and Publication

            2) Data and Resource Sharing

            3) Wider Communication of Research
