| When you publish
with a Virtual Cell Model |
|
1. Provide readers with a pointer.
In the paper, direct users to the Virtual Cell database accessible
via the software, then refer to your username and the name of
the archived biomodel. Users will find the model in your username
folder.
e.g. The Virtual Cell Model, providemodelname, is available
in the public domain at http://www.vcell.org/ under the shared
username provideusername
2. Acknowledge the Virtual Cell resource.
The Virtual Cell is supported by NIH Grant Number P41RR013186 from the National Center For Research Resources.
3. Let readers view your model.
All models in Virtual Cell begin as private models. To let
others see your model, you must change the permissions for the
model in the Virtual Cell Database. There are two options.
At a minimum, change your model to a Public model.
File>Manage Database - Rightclick on your model and choose
Permission; check "Public" and then OK.
Ideally, Publish and Archive your model. This saves your model
in an unmodifiable state, presumably the same state as that used
for the published simulations.
4. Let us know
We will add your publication to the list of published models associated with the Virtual Cell, submit publication. Just provide us with the citation information and the Virtual Cell username the model was developed under.
