NIH Public Access Policy - PMCID Federal/NIH Requirement • http://publicaccess.nih.gov/policy.htm Compliance helps avoid delays to awards • Compliance shown via PMCID • NIH has been delaying the processing of non-competing continuation grant awards, and has issued awards that restrict ALL spending, if publications arising from that award are not in compliance. • http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-13-042.html

  5.
