The purpose of the table below is to classify and quantify the number served for any Core B activity other than already described above Provide details of activities in Appendix C.1 (“Other Core B Activities”)

Activity (examples below) Number Served Travel Awards 3 Application Development Support 2 Poster design tutorials 9

III. New Publications Describing Work Supported by the Core (Does not count towards page limits) To the extent possible, Core B staff should try to follow up with previous awardees for new publication since the last reporting period. Data provided should include new (i.e. published during the current reporting period) publications that describe work supported by the relevant developmental award or NIH supplement.  List new publications that are linked to the CFAR base grant here.  For each citation, follow the format below.  Provide citations in alphabetical order by first author, bold face CFAR authors.  Do not attach copies of actual publications. 1. [Citation] PMID number

Revised 10/29/15 PMCID number:

IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to comply with NIH Public Access Policy, (http://publicaccess.nih.gov) any peer-reviewed manuscripts that arise from NIH funds, including Core B-funded projects, MUST be submitted to PubMed Central upon acceptance. Once a manuscript is properly submitted to PubMed Central, the corresponding author will receive an NIH Manuscript Number and, eventually, a PubMed Central ID (PMCID).

Please note that a PubMed ID (PMID) is not the same thing as a PubMed Central ID (PMCID).

Across the CFAR, publications are tied to your CFAR only by a PMID or NIH Manuscript Number. If a publication does not have either number your CFAR will not receive credit for the support provided to work described in that publication.

Furthermore, any Core B-funded publication that is out of compliance with the Public Access policy (i.e. does not have a PMCID number) places renewal of that CFAR’s annual award at risk.

MyNCBI Report The MyNCBI report requirement is specific to Core B. 1. After completing the Core B template, convert the finished document to a pdf. 2. Include a MyNCBI report for all publications listed in Section III above. 3. Upload the combined pdf to section B.2 of the “Core B” component in the RPPR application.
