Publication and Data Landing pages

Stand-alone websites may not be necessary for some projects. For these instances, your research may be showcased as a publication or data landing page on the LSP website or the Harvard Tissue Atlas website.

The template for these landing pages serves as a checklist for files and information to provide in order for your research to be properly represented.

Publication/data landing page template can be found on the HiTS SharePoint.

*if you have questions about the landing page template, please reach out to Juliann Tefft (Juliann_Tefft at hms.harvard.edu)
