Cleveland Clinic received $154 million in awards from the National Institutes of Health in 2022.

$78 million (51%) funded R01 grants, which support individual projects that align with Cleveland Clinic’s basic, translational and clinical research programs. These awards can be investigator-initiated or solicited via requests for application.

$14 million (9%) funded other types of R awards. These smaller, individual grants support early-stage research, research infrastructure, education programs and shared equipment.

$23 million (15%) funded P awards. P series grants, called program project/center grants, support teams of investigators conducting integrated, collaborative research projects and programs that have a well-defined, central research focus. In addition to individual research projects, they also provide support for shared resources.

$25 million (16%) funded U01 cooperative agreements. Like R01 grants, U01 grants support investigator-specific research projects and infrastructure. The major distinction is that cooperative agreements enable NIH to provide input on some decisions in collaboration with the principal investigator.

$14 million (9%) funded other types of grants, which primarily provide training and career support for early-stage investigators, including doctoral students, postdoctoral fellows and other trainees.
