Common use of Publications and data Clause in Contracts

Publications and data. ⮚ You will be first author on any publication that comes directly from your research project. ⮚ Data storage: I require all data for your research project to be backed up in multiple locations such as your desktop computer, external hard drive, OneDrive, etc. If you need an external hard drive, please contact me and I will provide you one for data storage, but this unit will need to be returned upon completion of your project. ⮚ Prior to graduation, you will provide me with your research data files to ensure access to it after you leave the University. This makes it possible for future lab members to build off your research once you have completed your degree. These files must be named appropriately including a document that contains a description of all file names and data column names. ⮚ You’re expected to publish the findings of your research in a relevant scientific journal within 6 months to 1 year of the completion of your degree. Life after graduation can be busy and publishing old work may no longer be a priority. As such, if you have not submitted your research for publication within one year of graduation, I reserve the right to submit the manuscripts for you. Authorship in this situation will be dependent on the situation.
