Notes Regarding Tables I and II

Note 1: (Re: Tables I & II) Data for Table I (both for August and October 2009 council rounds) were run on 7/22/09. Only applications assigned to a division by that date were included in Table 1 for August 2009 (page 4) and Table 1 for October 2009 (page 5 . Four applications for the October 2009 Council had not been assigned as of 7/22/09, but all applications for the August 2009 Council had been assigned at that time. Applications that had been withdrawn by that date were excluded from Table I. Dollaramounts shown in Table 1 are direct costs only (dollars requested for only the first year).

For Table II, run on 8/19/09, only applications that had been assigned to a division, reviewed, and percentiled by that time were included. One grant application in the RPG line did not meet these criteria at the time Table II was prepared (it had not been reviewed

Note 2: (Re: Table I) Research Program Grant applications shown in the first line include P01 (Program Projects), R01 (Research Projects), R03 (Small Research Grants), R15 (Academic Research Enhancement Awards), R21 (Exploratory/Developmental Awards), R33 ( Exploratory/Developmental Grants Phase II), R34 (Clinical Trial Planning Grant Awards), R36 (Aging Research Dissertation Awards to Increase Diversity) and U01 (Cooperative Agreements). Contracts are not included. Costs shown are the first year total direct costs requested. Facilities and Administrative costs are not included.

Note 3: (Re: Table I & II ) Data include applications to be reviewed by Council, applications considered not competitive and applications requesting $50,000 or less.

Note 4: (Re: Table I) The data may include competing supplements to existing grants. These supplements are counted as separate applications except in the Center line.

Note 5: (Re: Table II) The data include Research Project Grant applications where percentiling was used to rank the applications. As applications responding to RFAs, and a few other applications, are not normally percentiled, the number of applications in Table II is usually less than the corresponding number in line 1 of Table I.

Notes Regarding Tables I and II

Note 1: (Re: Tables I & II for ARRA applications) Data for Table I and Table II were run on 8/31/09. Only applications assigned to a division by that date were included. Twenty-three applications for the October 2009 Council had not been assigned as of 8/31/09. Applications that had been withdrawn by that date were excluded from both tables. Dollar amounts shown in Table 1 are direct costs only (dollars requested for only the first year).

Note 2: (Re: Table I) Data shown in the first row pertain to RC1 and RC2 applications, in response to RFAs OD-09-003 and OD-09-004, respectively. The second row shows data pertaining to P30 applications, in response to RFA OD-09-005. The last row pertains to data for Competitive Revisions, in response to NOTICE OD-09-058.

Note 3: (Re: Table I & II ) Data include applications to be reviewed by Council, applications considered not competitive and applications requesting $50,000 or less.
