Most-cited papers in Scientific Data

A sense of self : listening to homeschooled adolescent girls

Susannah Sheffer · 1 Jan 1995

Radiomics features (RFs) studies have showed limitations in the reproducibility of RFs in different acquisition settings. To date, reproducibility studies using CT images mainly rely on phantoms, due to the harness of patient exposure to X-rays. The provided CadAIver dataset has the aims of evaluating how CT scanner parameters effect radiomics features on cadaveric donor.…

Globalisation and Its Impact on VET. Review of Research.

Barry Hobart · 1 Jan 1999

Accurate mapping and monitoring of tropical forests aboveground biomass (AGB) is crucial to design effective carbon emission reduction strategies and improving our understanding of Earth's carbon cycle. However, existing large-scale maps of tropical forest AGB generated through combinations of Earth Observation (EO) and forest inventory data show markedly divergent estimates, even after accounting for reported…

The effects of target spectrum, noise, and reverberation on auditory cue weighting in sound localization

Tran M Nguyen · 1 Jan 2014

Neuroblastoma cell lines are an important and cost-effective model used to study oncogenic drivers of the disease. While many of these cell lines have been previously characterized with SNP, methylation, and/or mRNA expression microarrays, there has not been an effort to comprehensively sequence these cell lines. Here, we present raw whole transcriptome data generated by…

Peoria Engine Plant (A): (Abridged)

Robert S. Kaplan, Amy P. Hutton · 23 Apr 1997

Genetic data are a crucial and exponentially growing resource across all biological sciences, yet curated databases are scarce. The widespread occurrence of sequence and (meta)data errors in public repositories calls for comprehensive improvements of curation protocols leading to robust research and downstream analyses. We collated and curated all available GenBank cytochrome-b sequences for amphibians, a…

CEDAW and sex segregation in education and employment: Australia, Japan and South Korea, 1970 – 2010

Kirsti Rawstron · 1 Jan 2014

Toxicogenomics (TGx) approaches are increasingly applied to gain insight into the possible toxicity mechanisms of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs). Omics data can be valuable to elucidate the mechanism of action of chemicals and to develop predictive models in toxicology. While vast amounts of transcriptomics data from ENM exposures have already been accumulated, a unified, easily accessible…

Scientific Data template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Scientific Data format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Scientific Data template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Springer Nature format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Scientific Data use?
Scientific Data uses Superscript numbered (Nature) references, shown as superscript numerals in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A., Jones, B. & Lee, C. A representative article title. Scientific Data 12, 45–58 (2023).
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Scientific Data?
No. DocuGuru generates the sn-jnl LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Springer Nature-ready Scientific Data document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Scientific Data template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Scientific Data format with correct headings, figures, tables, and superscript citations.
What is Scientific Data?
Nature Portfolio journal (Springer Nature). It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by Springer Nature.
Can I export a submission-ready Scientific Data PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Scientific Data template (the sn-jnl class) that is ready to submit to Springer Nature, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Scientific Data template cost?
You can start writing in the Scientific Data template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Scientific Data PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
