Tips for When to Acknowledge NIH Funding

Recipients should only acknowledge NIH awards on publications and other statements when the activities that contributed to that publication:

• Directly arise from the award
  - and - 
• Are within the scope of the award being acknowledged

When considering whether acknowledgement is necessary, ask yourself:

• Did the personnel activity supported by the award contribute to the publication?
• Did the award support the conduct of experiments or the analysis of data that contributed to the publication?
• Is there a clear and apparent link between the work described in the publication with the aims and objectives of the grant?

If the answer is yes to any of these questions, cite the appropriate NIH support. For further guidance, see the detailed NIH guidelines.
