Referencing style - Vancouver (based on Citing Medicine): Vancouver examples

A guide to using the Vancouver citation style for in text citations and reference lists.

References by format

The overarching principle in referencing or citing is that readers should be able to follow your sources if they are interested in finding out more about a topic. 

You should always acknowledge other authors whose ideas or information you have used.
