Experimental Resources

Because animal methods bias can result in publication delays or even manuscript rejection, authors who use nonanimal modeling systems should take preventive steps to avoid these negative outcomes. The first step to counter animal methods bias is to anticipate its potential to occur. Researchers should consider performing additional nonanimal experiments to corroborate findings. These measures can proactively counter downstream reviewer bias.

This database of experimental resources may be useful for researchers when designing studies and preparing manuscripts to help avert animal methods bias during peer review. It includes biorepositories, datasets, databases, platforms, and guides from academic, government, and commercial sources that are either freely available or accessible through application, purchase, or both. The database is non-exhaustive, and researchers are encouraged to contact us with any additions or amendments.
