Updated November 3, 2026. Read from NIH RePORTER ExPORTER and NSF Award Search. Published by NIH and NSF as U.S. government data. NIH awards are fiscal years 2021 to 2025 (NIH files published to 2026-07-09); NSF awards are fiscal years 2022 to 2026 (NSF files published to 2026-11-02). NIH amounts are the total cost of each fiscal year in the window; NSF amounts are the funds obligated in the window. Organizations are matched on the UEI. Open opportunities come from Grants.gov and match on agency and assistance listing number, and on the notice number NIH prints on an award. Free to reuse with credit to SpecStream under CC BY 4.0.
