On: Why Most Published Research Findings Are False (20...

All too easy to understand your situation. NIH is finally but slowly waking up and is imposing more “onerous” (aka: essential and correct) data management and sharing (DMS) document. Every grant applicant now submits following these guidelines:

Unfortunately, not all NIH institutes understand how to evaluate and moderate this key new policy. Oddly enough the peer reviewers do NOT have access to DMS plans as of this year.

Is this a process whereby the researcher is forced to submit the thesis (null, etc) of the research, ahead of the study and its findings?

I think you are referring to clinical trial registration. Different idea and process (a QA-like step).

The NIH DMS mandates are about the data generated by an award.
