Authorship:

Core instrument supervisors and staff should receive appropriate credit for their work on our facility clients' research. If someone is heavily involved in the design/perform/analyze of the experiment, they should be considered as a coauthor; If they simply help a client using the equipment, they should be mentioned in the acknowledgements. A related article from Nature about appropriate acknowledgements for core facility scientists and co-authorship can be found at https://www.nature.com/articles/nj7544-495a.
