Abstract

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) document "Standards For Human Stem Cell Use in Research" put forward a checklist for scientific journals to use in the assessment of compliance with its reporting standards. A trial implementation of this checklist at Stem Cell Reports revealed consistent gaps in the reporting of critical data relating to the cells and experimental methodologies employed in published manuscripts.
