Acknowledging research infrastructures in ACRIS

If you've utilized Aalto infrastructure for your research:

1. Include acknowledgments in your research output (e.g., journal articles or conference papers):
   • … The computational resources provided by  Aalto Science-IT are  acknowledged…
   • … The authors acknowledge the provision of facilities  and  technical support by Aalto University OtaNano – Nanofabrication Centre, Otanano -Nanomicroscopy Center  and  Science-IT….
   • The authors acknowledge the Aalto University  Bioeconomy research infrastructure as well as Raw Materials Research Infrastructure …
2. ACRIS staff will link the infrastructure to the research output record during the publication's importing/validation process:
   • Staff checks acknowledgments included in the publications.
   • Staff adds links to infrastructure based on acknowledgments.
3. When adding a new research output record to ACRIS, link the infrastructure to the record (publication metadata):
   • See Instructions on how to add an article record to ACRIS
   • Scroll down the record to Relations-section 
   • Select Facilities/Equipment and search for the appropriate infra by typing the infra’s name into the search field (list of infra names available below)
   • Click Save to close the form 
4. Check your ACRIS research output records for missing infrastructure links: 
   • Add missing links yourself or contact [email protected] for assistance.
   • Open your ACRIS profile and click Edit Profile.
   • Click Relations and choose My Output Records.
   • Open output records where you've utilized infrastructure.
   • Scroll down to the Relations section and check Facilities/Equipment.
   • Add links to infrastructure as needed.

Note: Link OtaNano to records when linking any of the following sub-infrastructures:

• OtaNano – Low Temperature Laboratory
• OtaNano – Nanofab
• OtaNano – Nanomicroscopy Center

Research output records linked to infrastructure are showcased on each infrastructure's webpage: https://research.aalto.fi/en/equipments/
