Major Changes in the Fiscal Year 2012 Budget Request

Major changes by budget mechanism are briefly described below.The FY 2012 budget request for NIBIB is $5.708 million more than the FY 2010 level, for a total of $322.106 million.

Research Project Grants (RPGs; -$1.096 million;total $231.454 million): NIBIB will continue to fund a substantial number of RPGs, 545 awards in FY 2012 (a decrease of 44 from FY 2010).

Training (+$0.442million; total $11.510 million): NIH will provide an across-the-board increasein FY 2012 of four percent for stipends levels under the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award training program to continue efforts to attain the stipend levels recommended by the National Academy of Sciences. This will build on the two percent increase in stipend levels for FY 2011. Stipend levels were nearly flat for several years and the requested increase will help to sustain the developmentof a highly qualified biomedical research workforce. Training costs are also reflected in the FY 2012 Technological Competitiveness - Bridging the Sciences program total, as all NIBIB training activities are within that program.

Research & Development Contracts (+$4.669 million; total $17.706 million): NIBIB’s R&D contracts total includes NIBIB’s share of several trans-NIH initiatives, such as the Therapies for Rare and Neglected Diseases program, the Basic Behavioral and Social Sciences Opportunity Network (OppNet), and support for a new synchrotron at the Brookhaven National Laboratory.
