- Investigators and trainees are required to link all manuscripts that result from work funded by ChicagoCHEC and any downstream publications that flow from ChicagoCHEC funded research or program activities.
- Individuals directly funded by ChicagoCHEC cores, or by project, pilot, or partnership development grants should cite ChicagoCHEC in any project output or publication.
- Individuals who use ChicagoCHEC resources or services (offered by cores, projects, pilots, or partnership development projects) for any project output or publication.
