Very Important Acknowledgment

Our continuing NIH support depends on the acknowledgment of the resources that were provided to you by the GCRC in all publications arising from your research project. In addition, we greatly appreciate if you can increase our Pediatric General Clinical Research Center's visibility by mentioning our support for your study in other public forums such as TV or newspaper interviews and articles. We have listed below the specific text of the acknowledgment as requested by National Center for Research Resources/NIH to be used in submission of any manuscript, abstract or book chapter. Please provide us with a reprint of your publication since we are required by the NIH program office to provide this information on an annual basis.
Publications arising from research projects involving GCRC resources should acknowledge this support by:

1. stating "Supported by grant M01-RR020359 from the General Clinical Research Center Program of the National Center for Research Resources, National Institute of Health"
   and
2. indicating in the methods section or case report that "The research participants were studied at Children's National Medical Center Pediatric General Clinical Research Center."
   Use of the GCRC is contingent upon meeting this requirement.
