Publishing work using data collected at MacCHESS

  • CHESS and MacCHESS in your "Acknowledgments". Please place the following acknowledgment in any publications resulting from work carried out at CHESS, using MacCHESS resources: "This work is based upon research conducted at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS), which is supported by the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health/National Institute of General Medical Sciences under NSFaward DMR-1829070 using the Macromolecular Diffraction at CHESS (MacCHESS) facility, which is supported by award GM-124166 from the National Institutes of Health, through its National Institute of General Medical Sciences."

    If space constraints do not allow long acknowledgments, use: "CHESS is supported by the NSF & NIH/NIGMS via NSF award DMR-1829070, and the MacCHESS resource is supported by NIH/NIGMS award GM-124166."
