When should I cite TRI?
Publications, presentations or other outcomes resulting from research supported in whole or part by a Translational Research Institute (TRI) resource or service, and any faculty partially or fully supported by TRI are required to:
- Acknowledge the TRI by citing the appropriate grant(s).
- Ensure publications are submitted to PubMed Central and assigned a PMCID. (Instructions and assistance for obtaining a PMCID are available at the bottom of this page).
What constitutes TRI support?
Examples of TRI support include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Pilot Award Program Awardees
- KL2 Scholar Awardees
- Inter-Institutional Pilot Awardees through the Consortium of Rural States
- Health Sciences Innovation and Entrepreneurship (HSIE) Training Program for Postdoctoral Fellows
- Implementation Science Awardees
- Team Science Voucher and Director’s Awardees
- Data Science Scholars Awardees
- Minigrants for Under-represented Faculty
- Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute Rural Research Award Program
- Community Based Participatory Research Scholars Awardees
- Use of electronic health care data and related services, including the Arkansas Clinical Data Repository, Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2), TriNetX, Honest Broker System and LifeLink™ Health Claims database
- Informatics or data collection support, including use of UAMS’ Comprehensive Research Informatics Suite
- Consultation regarding research design, biostatistics, ethics, community engagement, etc.
- Guidance or mentorship from TRI personnel
Which award numbers should I use?
When citing TRI related awards, you should cite all award numbers under which you have received TRI’s support. Support is determined by the date of award. Multi-year awards should cite award numbers that correspond with both the initial notice of award date and any subsequent funding years. For example, an awardee who received year one of funding in 2016 and year two in 2017 would need to cite both UL1 TR000039 and U54 TR001629. If you have any questions about what constitutes support, when your support started, or which grants you should cite, please contact Robin Liston.
Use the tables below to identify which award number(s) you should cite.
