  1. NIH Implementation of ARRA

  2. NIH is grateful to President Obama and Congress for the opportunity for NIH to play its part in improving the Nation’s health and economy

  3. Funding Impact • Stimulate the economy • Create and preserve jobs • Advance biomedical research

  4. Biomedical Research supported by ARRA: Examples • Diabetes • Cancer • Addiction • Glaucoma • Heart and lung diseases • Arthritis • Kidney disease • Mental disorders

  5. Comparative Effectiveness Research Extramural Scientific Equipment Extramural Repair, Improvements, & Const. Intramural Repair, Improvements, & Constr. $8.2 Extramural Scientific Research (All ICs, OD, Common Fund) $1.0 $0.3 $0.5 AHRQ – $0.4 ARRA appropriated $10 billion directly to NIH Oversight, Risk ManagementFinancial & Employment Reporting NIH Allocation of ARRA FundsDollars In Billions

  6. Scientific Research Approach • Stimulate and accelerate biomedical research with existing mechanisms • Expand science with new programs

  7. $60M Grantsfor Strategic Autism Research • Research to Address the Heterogeneity in Autism Spectrum Disorders • Develop / test diagnostic screening tools • Assess risk from exposures • Test early interventions / adapt existing pediatric treatments for older groups

  8. New ARRA NIH-wide Programs • Challenge Grants • Grand Opportunities (“GO” Grants) • Recruit new faculty to conduct research • Provide summer jobs for high school / college students and teachers to work in science labs

  9. Challenge Grants • Challenge Grants (at least $200M total) provide: • Priority avenues of research • Up to $500K total costs/year for up to two years

  10. Challenge Grants(Examples) • Biosensors • New approaches to HIV therapy • Bioethics • Health disparities in clinical research • Pain management • “Theranostics”

  11. Grand Opportunity Grants • Grand Opportunity (GO) Grants (at least $200M total): • High impact • Well defined • Large scale

  12. Signature Initiatives • Support exceptionally creative projects to address major challenges in biomedical research, e.g.: • Nanotechnology • Genome-wide association studies • Alzheimer’s disease • Oral fluids as biomarkers • Large scale sequencing • Community-based research

  13. New Faculty • Core Centers for Enhancing Research Capacity in U.S. Academic Institutions • Newly trained scientists • Start-up packages • Pilot research projects

  14. Summer Jobs in Research for Students and Teachers • Engage students and educators in research • Encourage students to pursue research careers • Provide summer internships at NIH-funded laboratories for science teachers

  15. Economic Benefits • Impact • Create and preserve jobs • Advance biomedical research • Reporting • Financial reports • Projects and activities • Trend analysis

  17. Recovery and Accountability • With the opportunity afforded by the ARRA also comes accountability. • Grantees must fulfill detailed quarterly budget reporting requirements, consistent with section 1512(c) of the ARRA. • Reports will summarize total amount of ARRA funds received that quarter and how those funds were expended. • This includes a detailed list of all projects or activities and an estimate of the number of jobs created or retained through those projects and activities. • These reports will be publicly available at:
