Acknowledging BioPACIFIC MIP

The BioPACIFIC MIP platform can only thrive through the development of a critically large community of engaged researchers. Communication, contextualization, and acknowledgement of how BioPACIFIC MIP resources enable results helps prospective users understand how they might advance their research by joining the community.

To promote this mission of knowledge sharing and growth, researchers working on approved user projects or in-house research at BioPACIFIC MIP should:

• Mention BioPACIFIC MIP within the main body of publications, in the methods section or where the facilities or procedures are described; example: “SAXS measurements were performed at the BioPACIFIC MIP user facilities at UC Santa Barbara.”
• Include the BioPACIFIC MIP logo and mention the relevant instrumentation when describing experimental methodologies in conference presentations and posters; see the video in the inset for an example.

And must:

• Acknowledge both the BioPACIFIC MIP award number (DMR-1933487) and the BioPACIFIC MIP name in all publications that are generated or resulting from BioPACIFIC MIP in-house research and BioPACIFIC user projects, including through use of the BioPACIFIC MIP funded tools, materials, or data in person or virtually; example: “This work was supported by the BioPACIFIC Materials Innovation Platform of the National Science Foundation under Award No. DMR-1933487.”
• Acknowledge the BioPACIFIC MIP award number (DMR-1933487) and/or BioPACIFIC MIP name in all presentations, websites, press releases, etc. that are generated or resulting from BioPACIFIC MIP support under the Materials Innovation Platforms solicitation (NSF 19-526).

For users accessing the facilities through the recharge/fee mechanism:

• The BioPACIFIC MIP award number (DMR-1933487) must be acknowledged in all publications that are generated or resulting from BioPACIFIC MIP support under the Materials Innovation Platforms solicitation (NSF 19-526), including use of the BioPACIFIC MIP funded tools, materials, or data in person or virtually.
• The BioPACIFIC MIP award number (DMR-1933487) and/or BioPACIFIC MIP name must be acknowledged in all presentations, websites, press releases, etc. that are generated or resulting from BioPACIFIC MIP support under the Materials Innovation Platforms solicitation (NSF 19-526).
