1. Explanation of Material Transmitted: While the introduction to this chapter implies that this policy is specific to the NIH Clinical Center’s Collaborative U01 program, the intent was to cover all extramural collaborations that utilize NIH special research resources. The NIH Office of Intramural Research has already drafted several chapters that cover these types of collaborations. Those looking for guidance on the Guest Researcher / Special Volunteer Programs should consult Manual Chapter 2300-308-1 (https://policymanual.nih.gov/2300-308-1). Guidance on the NIH On-site Research Collaborator Policy can be found at https://policymanual.nih.gov/2300-308-4.
