The policy states that NIH applications, proposals or progress reports must include the PMCID for any references. What is that and how do I find this?
PMCID, or the PubMed Central identification number, is located in the PubMed/Medline record of an article when using the abstract view. The PMCID is not the same as the PubMed Identification number (PMID). If a PubMed Central reference number is not yet available, include the NIH Manuscript Submission system reference number (NIHMS ID) instead. For more information, see the Public Access Training slide presentation (PowerPoint required).
