caution

DO NOT WAIT UNTIL SUBMISSION TO LOOK AT THIS CHECKLIST! Read this through before you start your analyses to save yourself time. There are lots of suggestions here that will make your life easier to do as you begin analyzing your data instead of combing through your work at the end.

This guide was written to save you time, ensure compliance with NIH/Grant funding requirements, and help with the reproducibility and reliability of your results.

Before submitting a manuscript, make sure you have the PEGR project, Github repo, GEO submission, and STENCIL(optional) sections completed.
