Did you cite a Symbiota portal in a publication or similar work? If yes, the SSH would like to hear about it!
The Symbiota Support Hub tracks the use of Symbiota portals in scientific research and related work, like specimen digitization. Doing so helps us measure the impact of these resources and, in turn, demonstrate their immense value to potential funders and other supporters. To date, the SSH has identified hundreds of publications that reference one or more Symbiota portals. However, because the citation tracking process is imperfect, and we greatly appreciate tips!
If you know of a publication or similar work that utilized a Symbiota portal, please let us know by completing the form linked below or by writing to help@symbiota.org.
