BRIMR Rankings of NIH Funding in 2023
as compiled by Robert Roskoski Jr. and Tristram G. Parslow
All data are derived from NIH year-end composite data for the federal fiscal year ending 30 September 2023, as released on the NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tool (RePORT).
Some files initially released on February 6 did not reflect corrections, involving 21 awards to 4 organizations, that BRIMR had received and approved early in the public-comment period; those files were revised on February 8 or 19 and are marked accordingly.
For additional information please see, a brief overview of BRIMR and its rankings, and a detailed methodology and changes affecting this year’s rankings.
