Title: Authorship order in LinkedIn
Post by: blackcat on August 10, 2018, 09:55:33 PM

Hi everyone

I am really wondering if we can change the authorship order on LinkedIn. Always I am listed the first author, which I am upset because I do not want to be inaccurate in authorship issue (my co-authors would kill me!!!)

Anyone who managed to change the order shown on the LinkedIn?

Also, I am an optoelectronic material chemist. Anyone who is professional chemist interested in networking can private message me and we can connect on LinkedIn. A nice idea, n'est-ce pas?

I think I had this conversation with them (LinkedIn) a few months ago, but can't find anything in my e-mail. From memory, you can't - but presuming you're linking to the paper(s) as well, anyone who clicks through can see the appropriate order.
