Affiliations

Element or context:

<aff>

Requirements:

NOTE: Each affiliation should only appear a single time within an article XML document.

  1. Place each affiliation directly within an <aff> element after all <contrib> elements, but within the <contrib-group>, and do the following:
    1. Give the aff a unique id of the form "aff{lowercase letter}"
    2. Include a <label> element; the label should contain the superscripted, lowercase letter that matches the letter used in the <xref> in the <contrib> (see Authors for more instruction on this)
    3. Do not use @specific-use on <aff>
  2. If the author has an email address, do not include it in <aff>. Instead, include it after <aff> within <contrib> (see Authors)

Example:

<contrib-group content-type="authors">
<contrib contrib-type="author">
<string-name name-style="western">
<given-names initials="E">Ernesto</given-names>
<surname initials="G">Guevara</surname></string-name>
