Core Facility RRID Index

Authors are encouraged to acknowledge PSOM core facilities via Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs).  Research Resource Identifiers are ID numbers assigned to help researchers cite key resources (including core facilities), in biomedical literature. 

In partnership with the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF), unique identifiers have been assigned to a wide variety of PSOM core facilities. Benefits of having an RRID include ease of citation, as well as indexing through PubMed and Google Scholar.  It is our hope that by tracking this information we will be able to publicize our cores to the broader community and track their scientific impact more rigorously.
