Manage Your Professional Bibliography
eRA Commons has partnered with the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) to link NCBI's personal online tool, "My NCBI," to the Commons. My NCBI offers an online portal-"My Bibliography"-for users to maintain and manage a list of all of their authored works. As of April 2010, linking a Commons account to a new or existing My NCBI account allows references saved in My Bibliography to automatically appear in users' Commons accounts. For more information about how to manage your professional bibliography in My NCBI, please follow the how-to links below.
