What does first authorship mean in our Lab? Being the first author typically means that you are: (1) an intellectual lead on the project, (2) making major contributions conducting the scientific work (e.g., developing methodology, analyzing data), and (3) a main writer on the manuscript, usually crafting the first draft. For some projects, a first authorship role may also involve project management with collaborators and partners. All of these activities are done under the mentorship of Dr. Rose as the PI with substantial feedback in an apprenticeship model.

### Does Code Review Merit Authorship?
14+
15+
Code review is an important part of the scientific process, and we require Lab members to have their code reviewed (@sec-code-review). However, code review alone does not necessarily merit authorship. Authorship requires substantial contributions to the scientific work, as described above. That said, code review can organically lead to deeper involvement in the project that may merit authorship.

Grants that fund research in the Lab must be recognized in our manuscripts, typically in the Acknowledgments section. If you have questions about which grant funded our work, ask Dr. Rose. See @sec-active-funding for grant information, including grant numbers.
