U.S. NIH Still Needs to Spend $5.2B in 2010 Stimulus Funding
Colleagues,
As reported in Genome Web News ... The National Institutes of Health (NIH) ... this year ... expects to spend another $3.6 billion under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ('Stimulus) of 2009 on research, according to the Department of Health and Human Services budget for 2011...
.. HHS expects that in 2010 NIH will spend another roughly $5.2 billion overall in stimulus funds that were left over from ARRA's first year. Of the $10 billion in total funding NIH received under ARRA, $8.2 billion was for research, $1 billion was for extramural lab construction and renovation, $500 million was marked for buildings and facilities expenses, and $300 million was given to the shared instrumentation program...
... In 2009, only $52 million was spent for extramural lab construction and renovation, leaving $948 million to be spent in 2010. Spending on buildings and facilities in 2009 totaled $50 million, leaving $450 million to be spent this year. Meanwhile, the shared instrumentation
program released $53 million in stimulus funds in 2009, leaving NIH to deploy the remaining $247 million in 2010...
... HHS also received ARRA (Stimulus) funding totaling $1.1 billion for Patient-Centered Health Research and Comparative Effectiveness, which was split three ways between NIH, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and a general HHS fund. Of that, NIH spent $192 million of its $400 million last year, and AHRQ has spent $5 million of its $300 million. Of the remaining $400 million for patient-centered research and comparative effectiveness that was to be spread across HHS, only $2 million was spent in 2009, leaving $398 million remaining to be spent in
the coming year...
... The budget proposal also includes $476 million for the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), which would fund development of next-generation countermeasures for high priority areas such as anthrax and acute radiation syndrome...
