PURE Datasets Guide
How to Create a Dataset Record in PURE
Strengthening your Data Access (Availability) Statements
The Data Access Statement (DAS) is one of the most important sections for the future credence of a manuscript. It is where interested readers go to locate the data upon which your manuscript’s claims lie, whether to verify those claims or to utilise the data for further research.
The DAS is also the section most likely to suffer neglect or hastiness.
Review Strengthening your Data Access Statement for guidance on how to improve your DAS.
