Being a core service facility, BIU staff rarely have time to undertake their own research. However, we do make significant contributions to many ongoing research projects, resulting in co-authorship of numerous scientific papers each year. Recent publications are shown below with BIU staff shown in bold . We also provide advice, support and imaging services to many other projects, resulting in the BIU being acknowledged in the publications from those projects.
We endorse both the Royal Microscopical Society's Core Facilities Publication Policy concerning the crediting of imaging facility staff for their contribution to published works, and the University of Southampton's Fair Attribution Guidance.
If you do publish work that includes data from our instruments, please do acknowledge the BIU in your paper and send us a copy for our records.
