5. Best Practices

• • Double-check the Funding Number: Always verify the number before before submitting your report or publication to ensure accuracy.
  • Consistency is Key: Use the same wording for acknowledgments across all outputs related to the funded work.
  • Check Submission Guidelines: Many journals, conferences, and grant reports have specific sections requiring funding acknowledgments. Ensure that the LaserNetUS Persistent IDs are included when requested.
