How to cite data generators

It is important for data publishers and for the reputation of data users that data is cited correctly.

We ask that you cite the data generators from the data you use. When applicable, please also cite any data curator (for example, much data on our site is the work of large publication-worthy curation/meta analysis efforts).

We would also appreciate citations of the VectorByte databases too.

Citation information for each record can be found inside the downloaded data files and on the dataset pages.
