International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium Portal: facilitating investigation of gene function and providing insights into human disease is a dataset published in Nucleic Acids Research (2025). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.344, placing it in the top 51.1% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 7 times, with 7 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 88/100.
Ranks in the top 51% for downstream scientific impact
Linked data & code
DataRank reads this dataset's downstream impact straight off the citation graph — no black box, no proprietary weighting. How is this computed?
FAIR checklist signals are shown for context only and do not affect DataRank scoring.
Full FAIR picture · advisory
The headline score is computed from the scored criteria — the fact-shaped checks (a repository, an accession, a licence) that two independent models agree on. The advisory criteria below are real FAIR guidance but rest on judgment calls that models read differently, so they inform without moving the number.
“S-BIAD2244”
The paper gives the BioImage Archive accession S-BIAD2244, which is a persistent identifier in a recognised repository scheme.
