Institute and Center Award Rates and Funding Disparities
In 2011, Ginther et al. first demonstrated that African American and Black applicants to the National Institutes of Health received grant awards at a lower rate than their white counterparts (Ginther 2011). Since then, multiple studies have reproduced and extended this finding (Ginther 2011; Ginther 2016; Hoppe 2019; Erosheva 2020). Recently we reported that African American and Black (AAB) PIs are more likely to propose research on topics that are less likely  to be funded (Hoppe 2019). We found that topic choice has little or no effect on whether an application is chosen for discussion, but after consideri...
