Some links in the SOPs will work for NIAID staff only.
Standard Operating Procedure Table of Contents
Purpose
To require NIH-funded investigators and extramural staff to submit final peer-reviewed manuscripts to a public archive of research publications and to show evidence of compliance with the public access policy in applications, proposals, and progress reports.
Procedure
NIH's public access policy has two requirements:
Public access covers publications that report research funded in whole or in part by NIH. This includes grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, fellowships, and intramural research.
The policy applies only to peer-reviewed papers published in journals, not to book chapters, editorials, reviews, or conference proceedings.
Compliance is a legal requirement and a term and condition of award.
