How to acknowledge SCG in your publications

Our ability to get grants and subsidies depends on the number of publications that acknowledge the authors’ use of the services we provide. We ask you to acknowledge our service center in your publications, when appropriate, to help us demonstrate our value to the scientific community.

Here are three sample sentences that you can use:

Preferred

If someone in particular helped you (modify as needed):

We would like to acknowledge Ramesh Nair (ORCID: 0000-0002-1323-3247) of the Stanford Genomics Bioinformatics Service Center (RRID:SCR_023340), who reviewed and stress-tested our pipeline; and Karl Kornel (ORCID: 0000-0001-5847-5330) of Stanford Research Computing (RRID:SCR_023413), who provided assistance with data transfer.

We would appreciate your use of RRIDs for our service center components and ORCIDs for our people—these IDs uniquely identify the resources that we contribute to the research community. For more information on these unique identifier codes, see the RRID and ORCID websites.
