FAIRsharing record for: Nature - Nature Protocols - Preparing your Submission

This FAIRsharing record describes: Data policy and author guidance for Nature Protocols by Springer Nature. Nature Protocols publishes secondary research articles - predominantly Protocols (including Protocol Updates and Protocol Extensions), but also techniques-related Reviews, Perspectives, Correspondences, Matters Arising, Commentaries, and Consensus Statements - all of which are based on published primary research papers. We cover new techniques and technologies, as well as established methods, used in all fields of the biological, chemical and clinical sciences. As we are not a primary research journal, our articles do not include new (previously unpublished) research findings and should only contain minimal new supporting data relating specifically to development of the Protocol (e.g. validation, benchmarking, and troubleshooting data). This journal recommends 1) the resources listed directly within this record, and 2) all resources listed in this record's parent policies (see the "extends" relationship).

本FAIRsharing记录旨在说明施普林格自然（Springer Nature）旗下《自然实验方案》（Nature Protocols）的数据政策与作者指引。《自然实验方案》刊载的均为基于已发表原创研究论文的二次研究类文章，主体为实验方案（含方案更新与方案拓展内容），同时收录与技术相关的综述、观点、读者来信、议题讨论、评论及共识声明类稿件。本刊涵盖生物、化学与临床科学各领域所应用的新兴技术与成熟实验方法。由于本刊并非原创研究期刊，所载文章均不包含此前未发表的全新研究成果，仅可收录与实验方案开发直接相关的少量新增支撑数据，例如验证、基准测试与故障排查相关数据。本刊推荐使用两类资源：1）本记录中直接列出的相关资源；2）本记录所属父级政策中所列的全部资源（详见"extends"关联关系）。
