Acknowledgments

Your Acknowledgment Matters!

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and National Science Foundation (NSF) require formal acknowledgment whenever researchers utilize grant-supported instrumentation. Beyond fulfilling these federal mandates, your citations are vital to our continued success.

When you acknowledge our facility and equipment, you provide the essential performance metrics required for our annual budgetary reviews. Furthermore, demonstrating a strong track record of facility usage is necessary when applying for external funding. Your continued support through proper acknowledgment directly enables us to maintain and upgrade our capabilities for the entire research community.

The Facility

To improve research reproducibility and help us reliably track our impact, we utilize SciCrunch Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs). These are unique, persistent identifiers used to index biomedical and scientific resources.

Any research project that received support from our facility, including data analysis, consultation, method development, or manuscript preparation, must include our facility RRID in the acknowledgments of all resulting publications:

"We acknowledge resources from the Campus Chemical Instrumentation Center Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Facility (RRID:SCR_027162), The Ohio State University. This facility is supported in part by funding from OSU's Enterprise for Research, Innovation and Knowledge."

The Staff

If a staff member assisted with your project, please include their name in the citation below:

"We thank and acknowledge the support of [Staff Name] for assistance in experimental design, data collection, and analysis of NMR data, as well as useful discussions and feedback on this manuscript."

 

The Instruments

If your research utilized specific high-field instruments, please include the appropriate specific citations alongside the facility acknowledgment.
