The U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) is seeking public input on access to publicly-funded research results, such as those that appear in academic and scholarly journal articles. Currently, the National Institutes of Health require that research funded by its grants be made available to the public online at no charge within 12 months of publication. The Administration is seeking views as to whether this policy should be extended to other science agencies and, if so, how it should be implemented.

A maximum of 3 contact hours per year from the IRP can be applied towards a member’s AHIP application or renewal. This comes to a total of no more than 15 contact hours per five-year credentialing period.
