How will the work of submitters of GWAS data be acknowledged by secondary users?
The NIH expects that all secondary users of GWAS datasets will acknowledge the contributing investigators who conducted the original studies, the funding organization(s) that supported the work, and the GWAS data repository in all resulting oral or written presentations, disclosures, or publications of the analyses. This policy will be agreed to by all approved data users through their agreement to abide by the terms of use described within the Data Use Certification for each NIH GWAS dataset.
