Acknowledgement of the Facility in Publications

In alignment with other Shared Rescource Facilities in MVLS, the Flow Cytometry Core Lab publication Policy is as follows.

Flow Cytometry Core Lab Publication Policy

As an academic core facility, Flow Cytometry Core Lab in common with other universities follows the internationally established guidelines in different universities and institutions, stipulated by journals and the publication houses. We have, therefore, implemented a new publication policy within the facility.

All publications resulting from the use of instruments within the facility should acknowledge the Flow Core Facility as a whole, e.g. ‘the authors gratefully acknowledge the Flow Cytometry Core Lab for their support & assistance in this work’
Where users have had significant help from a particular member of Flow Core Facility staff or Flow Core Facility staff have generated additional data personally, this staff member should be acknowledged by name, alongside the facility if applicable, e.g. ‘the authors thank *** of Flow Cytometry Core Lab for their support & assistance in this work’

If scientists from Flow Core Facility contributed more than just routine techniques (e.g. Development or adaptation of protocols to suit samples or materials, (re)designing experiments, extensive data analysis and interpretation), it constitutes contributions meriting co-authorship in papers that use data.

We appreciate that authorship decisions are generally made at the preparation stage of a manuscript, rather than at the initiation of the work; Flow Core Facility expect to be informed of any potential publications resulting from the work. Flow Core Facility staff should have the opportunity to participate in drafting the pertinent part of the paper and give final approval to the wording and conclusions drawn before publication, as any other contributing scientist would.

If you are uncertain about co-authorship or have any questions or concerns about this, please discuss this issue with the facility manager in advance.

Please send a reprint of the paper, or an e-mail including the reference information for the publication, to the Flow Core Facility.

We also politely request that you remember to acknowledge use of the Flow Core Lab in your presentations and cite the facility in grants, as appropriate.
