Publication List

Purpose and content

The publication list should present an accurate, complete, and well-documented picture of your research activity. 
It should help reviewers assess the depth, continuity, and impact of your academic output. 


Structure and requirements

Follow the format and requirements specified by the foundation or funding body. If no formal instructions are provided, the following general structure is recommended: 

Format: All authors (where possible), year, title, publication venue, volume number, first and last page numbers (or article number and page count). 

Organize your list into the following categories: 

  1. Peer-reviewed publications 
    Articles, monographs, peer review proceedings, book chapters. 
  1. Non-peer-reviewed publications 
    Reports, discussion papers, editorials, etc.. 
  1. Patent references 
    Applied and granted patents relevant to your research area. 

Within each category: 

  • Sort publications by year (newest first)
  • Highlight your name clearly — e.g., in bold
  • Use consistent formatting for author names, titles, journal names, and DOIs. 
  • Number the items if the list is extensive. 

 

 

If you are a co-author in larger projects, highlight your role, e.g., [Co-author, responsible for data analysis and methodology]. 

Tips and recommendations 💡

  • Focus on quality over quantity — select the most relevant and influential works. 
  • Maintain consistent style and referencing format throughout the list. 
  • Make your list easy to navigate for reviewers by grouping publications logically. 
  • Emphasize how your publication record supports your qualifications for the project

Evaluation checklist ✅

  • Does your list only include published or accepted works? 
  • Is it divided into clear categories with a consistent structure? 
  • Is your name highlighted, and your role emphasized? 
  • Is irrelevant content excluded? 
  • Does the list demonstrate your suitability for the proposed project?
