Principal Investigators of sponsored research projects, or individuals who are responsible for the administration and oversight of sponsored research projects, should ensure the appropriate acknowledgements and disclaimers are included in all publications generated as the result of sponsored research funding. The Federal Demonstration Partnership (FDP) policy on publications states the following publishing requirements for acknowledgements and disclaimers:

Acknowledgement

The award recipient is expected to publish or otherwise make publicly available the results of the work conducted under the award. An acknowledgement of the awarding agency support must appear in the publication of any material, whether copyrighted or not, based on or developed under this project, as follows:

"This material is based upon work supported by the [name of the awarding agency(ies)] under Award No. [recipient should enter the awarding agency(ies) award number (s)]."

Disclaimer

For all materials, except scientific articles or papers published in scientific journals, the disclaimer should appear as follows:

"Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this publication are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the [name (s) of awarding agency(ies)]."
