As an NIH-funded organization, the CTSC requires all investigators employing CTSC-supported research in their publications to comply with NIH citation policies. All publications resulting from federally funded research must have a PubMed Central Reference Number (PMCID) to comply with NIH policy. This applies to all publications resulting from CTSC-supported research. This citation is critical for the CTSC and all research facilities who receive federal funding. Requesting a PMCID is the responsibility of the awardee. Awardees may coordinate with their publisher to request or include the PMCID, but should not assume their publishers have requested the PMCID. A PMCID must be requested as soon as the research is accepted for publication. No submittal window is provided in which to request a PMCID. The NIH 12-month submittal window for publication refers only to public availability on PubMed Central.
Support from the CTSC takes many forms, including but not limited to:
Cite the CTSC in all applicable research publications, and submit all CTSC-supported publications to PubMed Central.
To properly acknowledge the grant in your manuscript and link the final publication to the CTSA grant once it is accepted, please follow the instructions below. Merely citing the CTSA grant does not ensure a visible link to our grant for NIH.
“This project is supported by an award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under grant number UL1TR001449 and/or KL2TR001448.”
NIH and renewal grant reviewers may check any CTSA's MPI grant record to see the number of publications related to our pilot grants or other resources linked to our grant. You can link existing publications to the grant even if you did not cite it in the original manuscript. This process takes about 5 minutes:
By following these steps, you will ensure that your publications are properly linked to the grant and visible to NIH.
Investigators may obtain a PMCID in one of three ways:
