A Reflection on Impact
Some of you may have heard me quote a thoughtful essay by Daniel Shapiro and Kent Vrana (both of Pennsylvania State College of Medicine) that is critical of research institutions promoting what funds they’ve received over what scientific progress those funds have supported. The authors argue that instead of using a ranking system to measure success that favors number of grants and dollars, we should consider a new system that focuses on the efficiency by which the science was conducted and how the research contributes to answering questions that are meaningful to science.
With that in mind, it’s worth reflecting that i...

Emergency Awards: HEAL Initiative: Coordinating Center for National Pain Scientists Career Development (R24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-NS-22-060 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts.

How Many Researchers: the FY 2021 Cumulative Investigator Rate
Our annual snapshot of how many researchers NIH supports is back. As with previous posts, the data presented here are also available in the NIH Data Book and represent awards made with traditional and supplemental coronavirus appropriations. The data are distinct from success rates, however, which are application-based metrics (see this post).
Our cumulative investigator rate is an NIH-wide person-based metric. The metric is calculated as the number of unique principal investigators who were designated on an NIH Research Project Grant (RPG), activity or mechanism, divided by the number of unique principal investigators who...
