NIH Rescinds Final Scientific Integrity Policy

2025-03-30

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has rescinded its Final Scientific Integrity Policy (NOT-OD-24-178) to align with the Administration's priorities. The NIH remains committed to scientific integrity and maintains multiple overlapping policies supporting it, including those on research misconduct, authorship, human and animal subject protections, and data management and sharing. This notice only affects the Final Scientific Integrity Policy and not any policies referenced within it. The NIH will also adhere to the HHS Scientific Integrity Policy.
