How to cite ERN GENTURIS in your publications

If your publication has co-authors from ERN GENTURIS member HCPs from two or more EU Member States, one of the following acknowledgements can be used:

  • "This work is generated within the European Reference Network on Genetic Tumour Risk Syndromes (ERN GENTURIS). ERN GENTURIS is funded by the European Union.”
  • “This work is supported by the European Reference Network on Genetic Tumour Risk Syndromes (ERN GENTURIS). ERN GENTURIS is funded by the European Union.”
  • “This work is supported (not financially) by the European Reference Network on Genetic Tumour Risk Syndromes (ERN GENTURIS).”

If the authors of the publication originate from one EU Member State only, or if the journal does not allow a phrasing like the one above, you can use:

  • “[author names] are members of the European Reference Network on Genetic Tumour Risk Syndromes (ERN GENTURIS).”
