Effective May 2014, seven new granting organizations will be added for the Grant Number (GR) field found in MEDLINE/PubMed citations. These new organizations are from Europe PubMed Central (Europe PMC) and the Health Research Alliance (HRA).

Grant information for the Europe PMC organizations is added to citations based only on information reported to Europe PMC Plus system.

For Europe PMC, the two new organizations are:

Organization Country

World Health Organization International

The five new HRA organizations are:

Organization Country

The funding information added to citations for these organizations will be coming from the NIH Manuscript Submission System (NIHMS) system and the Europe PMC Plus system only. Each of these granting organizations has its own grant number formats.
