Abstract
The battle over a law that requires federally funded scientists to hand over raw data to anyone who files a request has shifted back to Congress. This spring, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) collected more than 8,000 comments on its proposal for implementing the 8-month-old measure, many from scientists worried that it would hinder research by threatening patient confidentiality and proprietary collaborations with companies. In response to that concern, House appropriations committee members James Walsh (R-NY) and David Price (D-NC) plan to offer an amendment to OMB's funding bill that would put a 1-year hold on the law pending a study on its effects.
