SUMMARY: Neural morphology, the branching geometry of brain cells, is an essential cellular substrate of nervous system function and pathology. Despite the accelerating production of digital reconstructions of neural morphology, the public accessibility of data remains a core issue in neuroscience. Deficiencies in the availability of existing data create redundancy of research efforts and limit synergy. We carried out a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of neural morphology publications to quantify the impact of data sharing in the neuroscience community. Our findings demonstrate that sharing digital reconstructions of neural morphology via NeuroMorpho.Org leads to a significant increase of citations to the original article, thus directly benefiting authors. The rate of data reusage remains constant for at least 16 years after sharing (the whole period analyzed), altogether nearly doubling the peer-reviewed discoveries in the field. Furthermore, the recent availability of larger and more numerous datasets fostered integrative applications, which accrue on average twice the citations of re-analyses of individual datasets. We also released an open-source citation tracking web-service allowing researchers to monitor reusage of their datasets in independent peer-reviewed reports. These results and tools can facilitate the recognition of shared data reuse for merit evaluations and funding decisions.
