In response to a 2013 request from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, directing science-funding agencies to develop plans to increase access to the results of federally-funded research. NASA has partnered with HHS to allow NASA-funded authors and co-authors to deposit copies of their peer-reviewed articles from scientific journal publications and associated data into the PubMed Central (PMC) publication repository. Though not required under the current NASA award, we want to make this opportunity available to you to deposit any papers supported by NASA awards that were published / or accepted for publication on or after Oct. 1, 2015.
Starting in Oct. 2016 you should contact nasa-openaccess@mail.nasa.gov for instructions on depositing the manuscripts into PubMed Central
Thank you,
NASA Shared Services Center Procurement
