Subject: New publication using GridUnesp
Dear team,
I am reporting a new publication produced with GridUnesp support:
Title: Large-scale molecular dynamics analysis of proteins
Authors: Silva, J.P.; Santos, M.A.; Oliveira, R.T.
Journal: Journal of Computational Chemistry
Year: 2025
DOI: 10.1002/jcc.12345
Type: Journal article
The acknowledgment was included as required by the usage policy.
Associated project: Computational Biophysics (coordinator: Prof. João Silva)
The article PDF is attached.
Best regards,
João P. Silva
.. tip::
The more complete the report, the more accurate GridUnesp's impact statistics will be.
Previous Publications Without Acknowledgment
--------------------------------------------
If you have noticed that a previously published work did not include the acknowledgment of GridUnesp:
**It is still advisable to send the information for:**
- Inclusion in the historical database
- Counting in usage statistics
- Support for funding requests
**Procedure:** Follow the same format above, simply noting that the work has already been published and the acknowledgment is missing.
.. attention::
Even posters and oral presentations at schools, workshops, and conferences that used GridUnesp resources can and should be reported for inclusion in the database.
Publication Statistics
======================
