The bibliographic meta data of any peer-reviewed scientific publication is standardized and therefore this information is indexed and searchable. However, a publication's scientific content is unstructured, which too often causes a loss of invaluable knowledge. It alsomakes it more difficult or even impossible to integrate research findings across publications. On this page, the temporal-lobe curators give their view on which information is important when reporting scientific result of tract-tracing/brain connectivity experiments. Although some of these recommendations state the obvious, we have found many publications in which key information is missing.
