Welcome to the NIH Data Book

The NIH Data Book (NDB) provides basic summary statistics on extramural grants and contract awards, grant applications, the organizations that NIH supports, the trainees and fellows supported through NIH programs, and the national biomedical workforce.

The Data Book is organized into categories and sub-categories, each of which will display related reports together on a single page. Most reports provide both an interactive chart visualization and the underlying data table. Chart images can be exported in a PNG graphic format. Tabular data export is available in the Excel file format.

The interactive chart interface provides a visual summary with easy access to the details of each report. Mouse over visualizations to see the specific values, and interact with any buttons above a chart to customize the display.

The pop out icon expands a report into a single full screen display.

Share The share link provides a direct link you can email or copy to access a specific report.

The search feature in the upper right returns reports by specific title keywords or report number. For example, type success rates or 168 and press [enter] and select from the reports listed.

Historical versions of the NIH Data Book are provided in both PowerPoint and PDF formats.
