Excluded Studies

Small, qualitative studies involving human subjects may be excluded from National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) oversight. In this case, NCCIH will not collect study documents or track accrual.

Reminder: If you are funded for an NCCIH grant, the Notice of Award (NOA) has terms and conditions that are specific to your grant. It is important to carefully review and fulfill the requirements that are outlined in the NOA.
