Citing the MRRC in research publications

Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) are persistent and unique identifiers for research resources such as core facilities, organisms, tools, etc. More information can be found on this website: https://www.rrids.org/. The MRRC has acquired RRID:SCR_025215. Please use this RRID to cite the center in all publications describing work that uses data collected at the MRRC. Be sure to check your journal’s style guide and author recommendations for proper use of RRIDs. Example in-text citation:

“The imaging session was conducted at the University of Pittsburgh’s Magnetic Resonance Research Center (RRID:SCR_025215). “
