FAIR-SMART expands access to supplementary materials for research transparency.

ABSTRACT: Supplementary materials accompanying scientific articles are critical components of biomedical research, offering detailed datasets, experimental protocols, and extended analyses that complement the main text. These materials play an important role in enhancing transparency, reproducibility, and scientific impact by providing in depth analyses and the details necessary for reproducing experiments. However, the lack of consistent and standard formats has limited the access to supplementary materials in scientific investigations. In response, we propose a novel system aimed to enhance FAIR access to Supplementary MAterials for Research Transparency (FAIR-SMART). Specifically, we first aggregate supplementary files in a single location, standardize them into structured and machine-readable fo
