Data Policy

The Journal of Integrative Bioscience Research (JIBR) encourages authors to promote transparency, reproducibility, and scientific integrity by preserving and sharing the data supporting their published research.

Policy

  • Authors are encouraged to retain the original research data associated with their manuscripts.
  • Supporting datasets should be made available to editors or reviewers upon reasonable request during the peer-review process.
  • Authors are encouraged to deposit research data in a trusted public repository, such as Zenodo (https://zenodo.org), or another recognized subject-specific repository.
  • A Data Availability Statement should be included in the manuscript, indicating where the supporting data can be accessed or explaining any restrictions on data sharing.
  • If data cannot be shared due to ethical, legal, privacy, or confidentiality requirements, the reason must be clearly stated in the manuscript.
  • Authors are responsible for the accuracy, integrity, and long-term availability of the data supporting their published work.

JIBR supports responsible data sharing through repositories such as Zenodo to enhance the reproducibility, accessibility, and impact of published research.
