Grant Number [GR]

• an agency of the US PHS (Public Health Service)
• the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, or
• eight funding sources from the United Kingdom

For Public Health Services agencies, the number is followed by the Institute acronym; followed by the agency’s hierarchical structure from lower to higher entity, when known; and then followed by the country name.

Examples:       
LM05545/LM/NLM NIH HHS/United States
CA47147/CA/NCI NIH HHS/United States

For other funding organizations, the number is followed by the name of the organization; followed by the country name.

Examples:       
GR072308/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom

The four pieces of the grant number (e.g., LM05545 – number; LM – acronym; NLM NIH HHS – parts of, or the entire string of the agency’s hierarchical structure; and funding country) are each individually searchable using the [gr] tag.
