# Publication in ODC-TBI

Releasing your data through the ODC-TBI requires a [DOI request](https://fdilab.gitbook.io/open-data-commons/how-to-guides/get-a-doi/request-a-doi). Publication in ODC-TBI is overseen by and [Editorial Board ](https://odc-tbi.org/about/editorial_board)and the ODC Data Team.  The Editorial Board reviews each dataset to determine if:

* The dataset is relevant to TBI
* The metadata are complete, clear and promote FAIR
* The data dictionary is complete and helps a user to understand the data

The ODC Data Team performs various  [data quality checks for DOI](https://fdilab.gitbook.io/open-data-commons/how-to-guides/get-a-doi/data-quality-checks-for-doi) and works with the submitters to resolve any issues.

The ODC-TBI has adopted the same review process as the [ODC-SCI.](https://fdilab.gitbook.io/open-data-commons/how-to-guides/get-a-doi/publication-in-odc-sci/summary-of-review-process)  The process is collegial and designed to increase the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability (FAIR) of each dataset.  Briefly, the steps involve:

* Initial checks for completeness of files by the Managing Editor
* In depth curatorial review for quality checks and data formatting
* Review of metadata by 2 Editorial Board members for relevance, completeness, FAIRness and clarity.
* Feedback to the submitter on any required or recommended changes.
