Award Information & Data

New Reports Data Site
Countdown to migration: 6 Days
Attention: On May 15th 2008, we will complete our migration of the Awards Information & Data section of the OER Web Site to the new Reports, Data and Analyses Web Site, where you can find up-to-date information on NIH awards and other reports.

Awards information will no longer be available at the current location, so please be sure to update your bookmarks.


  • CRISP

    CRISP (Computer Retrieval of Information on Scientific Projects) is a searchable biomedical database of federally-supported proposed research conducted at universities, hospitals, and other research institutions.
Extramural Data and Award Trends

  • NIH Extramural Data Book 2007

    The NIH Extramural Data Book provides data on NIH extramural programs over a 10-year period as well as some longer-term trends. The topics covered include the distribution of the NIH Budget, research project grants, research centers, R01-equivalent grants, percent share, targeted research, first-time investigators, trends in training, fellowship and career development, modular grants, women in biomedical research and small business innovation research. It is updated annually by the Reporting Branch of the Division of Information Services (DIS), Office of Research Information Services (ORIS) at the NIH. Additional sections and slides may be added to the Data Book during the year based upon current trends and demands for data.

  • Award Data for Individual Organizations

    The NIH tracks its funding of critical medical research and other support at universities, hospitals, small businesses and other organizations, and annually compiles this information and makes it available to the public. Up to now, this funding information was available in the form of tables that showed comparative rankings in terms of dollars received.

    Please Note: After November 1, 2007, grantee institutions and organizations will not be able to update their information in the official publication file. If your organization has been awarded any grants between October 1 and September 30, organization officials have an opportunity to review the information and provide NIH with updated information to avoid errors in assignment of grants in subsequent official NIH reports. For more information, please see NOT-OD-07-094

  • Research Grants

    Research Grants are extramural awards made for Research Projects, Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfers (SBIR/STTRs), and Research Centers. Other Research Grants that are not classified as research projects or research centers are also included.
  • Award Trends

    Award Trends cover all NIH awarding components and all other award activities.  Includes Awards by State and Foreign Site and Ranking Tables.   NIH RANKING LIST: Annually, NIH computes data on funding provided by NIH grants, cooperative agreements and contracts to universities, hospitals, and other institutions. The data do not reflect Institutional reorganizations, relocation of research, or changes to award levels made after the date the data are compiled. The Ranking Tables simply reflect the number and amount of awards made to each Institution; therefore, they should not be interpreted as conveying any other meaning or measurement.
  • Success Rates

    Success rates indicate the percentage of reviewed Research Project Grant applications that receive funding.  This is computed on a fiscal year basis.  Dividing the number of competing applications funded by the total number of competing applications reviewed determines success rates.   Applications that have one or more amendments in the same fiscal year are only counted once.  Success rates for all activities are included.
  • Training and Career Awards

    Training and Career Awards support scientists in biomedical and behavioral sciences, and help professional schools establish, expand, or improve programs of continuing professional education. This section consists of institutional training grants (T), individual fellowships (F) and Research Career Awards (K).
