It is preferable now to use the Publications by Org schema since it is tied to automated data and is more reliable than the PubMed feed. See Publications Feeds

Some organizations and labs will want to list recent publications. You may use the PubMed component that automatically updates publications onto your page by pulling in information from PubMed.

  • Using the PubMed component eliminates the hassle of having to continuously update your publications page and writing citations.
