Thank you in advance for your contribution to the NF Research Tools Database! By sharing information about a tool, you will help the NF research community discover the tools that exist to support their research. We are currently accepting submissions of information about the following research tools: animal models, cell lines, antibodies, genetic reagents, and biobanks.

Please note: Contributed information on research tools and associated observations will be made publicly available in the NF Research Tools Database. All contributions should abide by the Synapse Code of Conduct and adhere to the resource submission rubric below. |
To submit a tool to the NF Research Tools Database, please complete the steps below and contact us at nf-osi@sagebionetworks.org with any questions:
1. Contact Us
Navigate to our help portal. Click “NF Research Tools Database”, then click “Submit a Research Tool,” and fill out the prompt. In the “Description” section, provide the following information about the tool(s) you would like to submit:
...
The information provided in each manifest must pass validation in a program called “Schematic” (to be performed by Sage following manifest submission). To ensure successful validation by Schematic, the information provided should adhere to the following standards outlined in each manifest:
Many of the columns have controlled values, thus, you will only be able to choose from the given values. These columns will have dropdown menus listing the terms you may choose from. If a list of valid values is provided in the manifest as a drop down menu, only those exact terms can be included. If you do not see a term that fits your submission, please contact us by email to let us know that you would like a new term added.
Multiple values can be provided by using a comma to separate them (e.g. ELISA, Western Blot). If more than one value is provided for a single attribute field, then the terms must be separated by commas.
Standards are followed based on the attribute descriptions (e.g. protein variation for mutations follows the nomenclature mentioned in the column descriptions - hover over the column name in the manifest to see the description).
If submitting an antibody please see the epitope formatting standard.
3. Submit Manifests
Prior to submission, perform a QC check to ensure that the information you have provided in each manifest adheres to the following resource submission rubric:
