Abstract

FaceBase serves as a premier database for human and animal research datasets within the craniofacial domains. Grounded in the principles of open data sharing, the platform not only houses critical research but also guides users on contributing their own data, creating data management plans (DMPs), and citing hosted datasets. This column explores the website's layout, search functionalities, and key use cases for researchers and information professionals.
