If “failed” means that the results are unusable or uninterpretable and you plan to re-try the experiment (for example: an in vitro cancer cell line-based assay was contaminated with yeast), then no, it generally is not worth sharing the raw data for these experiments.
How do I cite the data from the NF Portal?
If you’d like to reference data from the portal, you can find citation/acknowledgement information on the Study page for the data you are using. For example, see the “Acknowledgement Statements” section for the Synodos NF2 study.
We also recommend that you reference the Synapse ID (e.g. syn2343195) or DOI (e.g. 10.7303/syn2343195) for the data or study that you are referencing. These are persistent accession numbers/identifiers will help others find the data you used. These IDs can be found on the portal Study page.
