OA Self-Archiving Policy:
http://www.msfhr.org/resources/public/Funding/Open_Access_to_Research_Outputs_Policy.pdf

"All MSFHR Award Recipients who receive an award or an award renewal
after July 7, 2009 must ensure that all final peer-reviewed journal
manuscripts that arise from research supported by that award (in whole
or in part) are made freely accessible through either the Publisher's
website or an online repository within six months of publication.

"The Policy applies to any manuscript that is supported from funding
in whole or in part from a MSFHR Award. The manuscript must be
peer-reviewed and is accepted for publication in a journal on or after
July 7, 2009. This includes all graphics and supplemental materials
that are associated with the article.

"The Policy does not apply to non-peer-reviewed materials such as book
chapters, reports, monographs, conference proceedings and editorials.
Additionally, Award Recipients are now required to deposit
bioinformatics, atomic, and molecular coordinate data, as already
required by most journals, into the appropriate public database
immediately upon publication of research results.

...

Costs related to the publication of research outputs are considered
eligible expenses as defined in the Eligible Expenses section under
each Program area on the MSFHR website. Such costs incurred must be
actual, allowable, and reasonable to advance the objectives of the
award."
