SRC RRID and How to Cite
Basic RRID Information
Stanford Research Computing (SRC) provides an official Research Resource Identifier (RRID) to researchers. There are numerous reasons for using an RRID in your publication(s), including:
- When research processes are hardware-specific, including an RRID can promote reproducible results.
- It's an easy way for you to acknowledge the role our systems play in your research.
- When you do cite SRC or our systems in your papers, it helps us with reporting, requesting funds, and, in-turn, providing more services for you!
The umbrella RRID for SRC is RRID:SCR_025708. You can check out our resource page here. We may add additional RRIDs in the future for specific clusters, services, etc., but for now, the umbrella ID should work for most purposes.
