Referencing SSRL
The following statement should be included in the acknowledgement
section of publications that are based in part or fully on data
collected at the macromolecular crystallography beamlines:
"Portions of this research were carried out at the Stanford
Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory, a national user facility operated by
Stanford University on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office
of Basic Energy Sciences. The SSRL Structural Molecular Biology
Program is supported by the Department of Energy, Office of Biological
and Environmental Research, and by the National Institutes of Health,
National Center for Research Resources, Biomedical Technology Program,
and the National Institute of General Medical Sciences."
You are also encouraged to acknowledge your support staff contact person
if they provide help during your beamtime. If the support staff make
particularly valuable suggestions or contribute in a non negligible
way to the sucess of the experiment, you may consider making them
coauthors in resulting publications.
It is very important that you tell us about publications relevant to
work conducted at SSRL. Please fill out
the publication
form.
