  1. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009(787 billion) Impact on Researchpresented by:NJMS Research OfficeMarch 16th 2009

  2. Science Wins 21 B Dollar Boost $10.4 billion for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) $3 billion for the National Science Foundation (NSF) $1.6 billion for the Department of Energy’s(DOE’s) Office of Science 1 billion for NASA Science 323;992,2009

  3. NIH Receives $10.4 Billion in Funding through Recovery Act • stimulate the US economy through the support and advancement of scientific research • create or retain jobs, and have the potential for making scientific progress in 2 years. • NIH Institutes and Centers have broad flexibility to invest in many types of grant programs

  4. How Will it be Spent ? NIH Intramural Buildings $500 Million Comparative Effectiveness Research $400 Million NCRR-SIG/HEI $300 Million NCRR- Construction $1 Billion Special Mechanisms Research Grants (eg., Challenge grants are one of these) $800 Million Institutes and Centers $7.4 Billion

  5. How do they expect to spend the research money? • Select recently peer reviewed highly meritorious research grant applications (R01s and others), that can be accomplished in 2 years or less. • Fund new research applications • Accelerate the tempo of ongoing science through targeted supplements to current grants. • Support new types of activities such as the NIH Challenge Grant program that meet the goals of the ARRA. • Use other funding mechanisms as appropriate.

  6. $1.5 Billion in Grant Funds through RFAs $200 Million Challenge Grants RFA $300 Million 2 Instrumentation Grant RFAs (in addition to the $60 million that was already allocated to the SIG grant program) $1 Billion 2 Facilities Improvement Grant RFAs (Construction, Alterations, Renovations)

Total project must be completed in 5 years. • Alterations/Renovations to Existing Buildings To make major alterations and renovations to existing buildings, add to existing buildings, complete uninhabitable shell space in existing buildings, or construct new facilities including research and animal facilities, eligible organizations should apply under RFA-RR-09-008.  Funds requested can range from $2M to $15M.   Deadlines May 6th $2-5M, June 17th $10-15M and July 17th $5-10M. Three applications per institution allowed. Total project must be completed in 5 years.

  13. Additional Funds forComparative Effectiveness Research (CER) “a rigorous evaluation of the impact of different options that are available for treating a given medical condition for a particular set of patients. Such a study may compare similar treatments, such as competing drugs, or it may analyze very different approaches, such as surgery and drug therapy.” Such research may include the development and use of clinical registries, clinical data networks, and other forms of electronic health data that can be used to generate or obtain outcomes data as they apply to CER. http://grants.nih.gov/grants/funding/challenge_award/
