Enhance rigor and reproducibility in scientific research
SciScore is an automated text-mining tool that evaluates the methods section of scientific articles and checks compliance against recommendations, requirements, and best practices for rigor and reproducibility. The tool generates for researchers both an overall score and a detailed report that provides guidance on potential improvements. SciScore helps ensure key resources like antibodies, cell lines, and organisms, are described in enough detail (e.g. vendor names, catalogue numbers, RRIDs, etc.), so that other researchers can try to replicate a studies findings. SciScore can produce an Materials, Design, Analysis, Reporting (MDAR) report for your research in under a minute. Additionally, it provides information on both the general state of a journal’s rigor & transparency practices.
