How to Acknowledge Us

Acknowledging the OpenSim project helps us and helps you. It allows us to track our impact, which is essential for securing funding to improve the software and provide support to our users Acknowledging the OpenSim project helps us and helps you. It allows us to track our impact, which is essential for securing funding to improve the software and provide support to our users (you).

If you use the OpenSim GUI, you must acknowledge the OpenSim project where appropriate, by citing the following paper. If you only use the OpenSim API, you are not required to acknowledge us, but we would be extremely grateful if you did so anyway.

We would also be grateful if you mention that OpenSim is funded by grants from the NIH including the Mobilize Center (P41EB027060) and Restore Center (P2CHD101913). We greatly appreciate this support, and the NIH appreciates knowing that their funds are having an impact, particularly on medical research and human health. If you use plugins, models, or other components contributed by your fellow researchers, you must acknowledge their work as described in the license that accompanies each of these files.
