Publications & NIH Policy

Citing Scholarships in Publications & Posters

Funded students should cite their fellowship grant numbers on posters and in publications. See the grant numbers HERE.

Current wording from the NIH to acknowledge a scholarship grant number:

Each publication, press release, or other document about research supported by an NIH award must include an acknowledgment of NIH award support and a disclaimer such as“Research reported in this publication was supported by the National Institute Of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number T34GM008574. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the National Institutes of Health."

NIH Public Access Policy

Effective April 7, 2008 under federal law, NIH requires that the author's final version of any peer-reviewed journal article resulting from NIH-funded activities MUST be submitted to the PubMed Central (PMCID) repository, where it will be made available to the public within 12 months after the journal article is published. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact the SEO Office before your publication goes to press.

Sample wording from the NIH for publishers that do not automatically grant open access for the journal articles:

“The Journal acknowledges that the Author retains the right to provide a copy of the final peer-reviewed manuscript to the NIH upon acceptance for Journal publication, for public archiving in PubMed Central as soon as possible but no later than 12 months after publication by Journal.”
