One of the reasons we established @TechsCommit here in the UK was to encourage appropriate recognition for technical colleagues across the sector - especially on research outputs. Research is a team effort & #technicians make vital contributions.

We’re seeing some great progress on this with @TechsCommit here in the UK. Many signatory institutions are putting policies in place to ensure that #technicians are given credit/authorship on publications for their contributions to research - we’re starting to see real change!
Smart tech job applicants ask this question: will I have authorship. If you give techs authorship and agency you will also hire better people. That's what a lot of techs said to me in interviews for my piece in @NatureCareers go.nature.com/2VMOpKF @kellyvere
