TOPMed Banner Authorship

The TOPMed banner, NHLBI Trans-Omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) Consortium, is used to acknowledge individuals who contributed to the overall conduct of TOPMed but do not otherwise meet criteria for by-line authorship for a given manuscript (see TOPMed Authorship Guidelines). Examples of these contributions include designing, managing or leading projects and studies; coordinating, performing, or processing genomic sequence or other omics data; study participant recruitment; phenotype data collection or harmonization; and data quality control/quality assurance.

You may download this list as a .csv or .doc file by using the links at the bottom of this page.

The ACC has also created an R function available as a GitHub gist that can be sourced to format the banner author list for TOPMed publications. Users may also find the NCI Author Arranger tool helpful in formatting the banner and other author lists.
