FAQ

How should I acknowledge the contribution of the NGS Platform in publications?

For experiments in "service mode", it is sufficient, if you put a statement in the acknowledgments section, such as e.g. "We would like to thank the Next Generation Sequencing Platform of the University of Bern for performing the high-throughput sequencing experiments." You may modify this statement as you think is appropriate. If there is a deeper involvement of the NGS Platform, such as e.g. the development of a new protocol in the lab or advanced bioinformatic analyses, we may ask you for co-authorships on the resulting publications. This will be discussed during the initial planning of an experiment.
