Read the full FAQ for details.Planning to apply for a Stephen I. Katz Early Stage Investigator Research Project Grant? See the below new FAQs:

Reminders About When to Cite an NIH Grant in a Paper: Overcite Oversight
In 2021, we wrote that appropriately acknowledging NIH grant support allows us to properly assess award outputs and make recommendations for future research directions. This is a term and condition of award under long-standing federal law. Our Grants and Funding site provides guidance: grants should only be cited if they directly supported the work described in the paper and work described in the paper is clearly within scope of the grant award. We still see examples, though, of researchers improperly overciting grants that are unrelated with the research, be it an honest error or intentional. This post revisits the issue ...
