joint first authorship
Explanation:
Based on research and the context, I’m thinking that 共一 is short for 共同第一作者.

“But it seems to be just a supporting role, not a role of my own. It’s over-glorified. Perhaps in the end, it will be a joint first authorship.”

共同第一作者:
http://www.paperpub.com.cn/website/blog/blogcontent.asp?id=4... : 如果确有必要说明两个以上的作者在地位上是相同的, 可采取“共同第一作者”(Joint first authors)的署名方式, 也可在这些作者的姓名旁边使用符号来标识, 并说明“这些作者对研究工作的贡献是相同的” (These authors contributed equally to the work).
http://bit.ly/1b35yOl : 有时候有点奇怪,另外一个人贡献了40%的figures,就算是苦劳给个{共一}也没啥啊,你还是排在最前面的一作。
