First Fruits of NIH Public Access Policy
Since the NIH policy took effect on May 2, grantees have submitted 340 papers to PubMed Central (PMC) for public access. Of those, 11 are now processed, online, and ready to read.
Each is available in HTML and PDF editions. Here are the links to HTML editions:
