The mission of the MICC team is to guide and assist users in acquiring and analyzing images. Thus, it’s not required to include any staff member of the imaging center in the author list of the publication. However, when a staff member of the imaging center has significantly contributed to a publication, it is highly recommended to add this person in the list of authors.

Mentioning the imaging center in the publication:
  • In the section Materials and Methods: “image acquisition [and image analysis] was done in the MICC Imaging facility of CNC, partially supported by PPBI – Portuguese Platform of BioImaging (PPBI-POCI-01-0145-FEDER-022122).”

 

  • In the Acknowledgments section: “The authors wish to thank [xxx] from the MICC Imaging facility of CNC, partially supported by PPBI – Portuguese Platform of BioImaging (PPBI-POCI-01-0145-FEDER-022122).”

Users must indicate that they have used the MICC in any publication. This information highlights the use of the equipment of the Microscopy Facility, the efficiency of investment and facilitates all requests for funding for the acquisition of new microscopes.

Users must submit, as soon as possible, the references of any publications that have used the equipment of the imaging center.
