Access to data underlying published findings remains unreliable across life sciences, even in high-profile journals, which slows the progress and erodes trust in the scientific record. We propose a simple Data Availability Checklist for peer reviewers that targets the most common failures in data sharing and can be adopted immediately within existing review workflows.
