Data Notes

At BMC Research Notes, we recognise that valuable data often go unpublished when instead they could be helping to progress science. This is why we launched Data notes: a short article type allowing researchers to describe their data, sharing them with the research community and receiving credit for all their work - not just a finished article.

We present here all the Data notes published in the journal, a free and open resource for the scientific community. Why not join them and free your data too?
