Curating research artifacts to support scientific integrity.

The CUrating for REproducibility (CuRe) Consortium supports curation of research data and review of code and associated digital scholarly objects for the purpose of facilitating the digital preservation of the evidence-base necessary for future understanding, evaluation, and reproducibility of scientific claims.

Guiding Principles

Transparency, Access, and Trust

All research artifacts underlying published or reported findings should be made maximally available from a trusted repository.

Usability

All research artifacts underlying published or reported findings must be independently understandable and usable over the long term.

Independence

Steps should be taken to ensure that published or reported findings can be reproduced on an independent computational system and by independent third parties.

Pre-publication

To the greatest extent possible, independent reproduction of computational analyses and findings should take place prior to publication.
