Abstract The National Cancer Institute (NCI) offers many programs and resources in support of the longstanding National Institutes of Health (NIH) commitment to making results of research available. Data sharing accelerates the pace of biomedical research, promotes validation and reproducibility of findings, and increases public trust in science. NCI research efforts have resulted in vast collections of data that are available for secondary use. Efforts like the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI) aim to improve both collection of and access to high-value data to allow scientists to learn from every child with cancer, and other systems have also been developed to catalogue and index the wealth of data that exists for pediatric cancer research. Here we provide a description of current resources that researchers can use both to identify data resources and to aid in data management and sharing of prospective work. These resources support FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data principles, and serve as a starting point for anyone seeking to enhance their pediatric cancer research efforts.
