2014 By the Numbers
Application and award summary data for fiscal year 2014 are now available in the NIH Data Book. These data are of particular interest for all of us this year, considering the historic low of the success rate last year, and the reduction of NIH’s budget in fiscal year 2013, due to sequestration. For this reason, in the table below, we include both FY 2013 and FY 2012 data for comparison purposes. We received 51,073 competing RPG applications at NIH in fiscal year 2014, an increase compared to last year, but still below the highest number of applications received by NIH in a fiscal year (51,313 applications in FY 2012). We...
