Advertisements/notices have begun to appear in STM research publications (see, for example, Nature, v.437, p.608, 29 Sep. 2005 issue), highlighting the new policy regarding Wellcome Trust funded research. The notices state, "To maximize the impact of the research it funds, the Wellcome Trust now requires all Trust-funded researchers to deposit their peer-reviewed research papers in PubMed Central - the free-to-access life sciences repository, developed by the National Institutes of Health (NIH)."
Further information can be found at the new grant conditions Wellcome Trust page.
