Acknowledgement, Authorship, & Facility Publications
Acknowledge the BioKEM Facility and Author the Staff
Why acknowledge the facility
Acknowledging the BioKEM Facility and including facility staff as authors, when appropriate, helps demonstrate the facility’s impact across CU Boulder and beyond. We track publications, presentations, and user activity to highlight the facility’s contributions to research and training for our home department, the University of Colorado Boulder, and funding agencies such as the NIH and NSF. These metrics help support requests for additional resources, which can reduce user costs and enable the acquisition of new equipment, services, and staff.
Acknowledgement and authorship guidelines
Any publication, presentation, poster, or other public display that includes data collected with support from the BioKEM Facility must acknowledge the facility and staff member as appropriate.
If BioKEM staff provided routine support, such as sample loading or standard sample screening, acknowledgement of the facility is required.
If BioKEM staff made intellectual or technical contributions, such as collecting data the user lab could not have acquired independently, assisting with data processing, advising on improvements to sample and data quality, or generating final maps or models, middle co-authorship is required. Primary or corresponding authorship is only appropriate if the project utilized staff expertise to that level of contribution for the published work.ĚýĚý
If you are unsure whether co-authorship is appropriate, please contact facility staff.
