The Grant Records dataset focuses on grant fields. You will find award-specific details such as activity code, fiscal year (FY), and total cost in this dataset, as well as some linked literature and clinical trial data. Below is a glossary of terms that can be found in the Grants dataset (search fields, record view, export, and more).
To learn more about how to search using search fields, visit the Search Strategies section. Note: When performing a manual query, search fields can be selected by clicking the Search Fields button below the Search icon in the search bar. If a field is not displayed in the list, you can still search it by using a Custom Field.
Abstract: Contains the text of the abstract from the grant record as supplied by the grantee. The application project summary/abstract succinctly describes every major aspect of the proposed project. It should contain a statement of objectives and methods to be employed.
Example:Signaling
Active Award: Identifies grants that are active at the time of your search. This field is pulled directly from RePORTER, and uses the most recent record of projects that have not yet reached their budget end date (in the case of extramural grants), contracts from the most recent fiscal year (FY), or intramural projects from the most recent annual reports from the NIH intramural programs (information on contracts and intramural projects is updated at the close of each FY). This means that the results of "Active Projects" searches may include projects awarded in an earlier fiscal year that are still active (e.g., extramural awards in a no-cost extension period) or not yet updated by the end-of-year intramural project report.
Repeating a search with this filter may result in different records depending on the time between searches.
Example:Yes
Activity Code: NIH and other HHS agencies use letter and number codes, e.g., F32, K08, P01, R01, T32, to differentiate the wide variety of supported programs. Furthermore, individual Activity Codes are also bucketed into larger funding categories, e.g., extramural research (RPG), training, contracts, intramural, and other. More detail is provided below:
- Extramural activity codes include research grants, training grants, and cooperative agreements. See the full list of extramural activity codes.

Calculated Indirect Cost Amount: Total NIH indirect cost dollars awarded to a grant. An indirect cost is any cost that cannot be easily identified for a specific project but can be identified with two or more final cost objectives. There are three types of indirect costs: 1. Fringe benefits, which are services or benefits provided to employees, e.g., health insurance, payroll taxes, pension contribution, paid absences. 2. Overhead costs, which are indirect costs associated with the performance of a project, e.g., rent, heat, electricity. 3. General laboratory supplies, which are indirect costs associated with the overall management of an organization, e.g., President’s Office, Human Resources Office, Accounting Office, office supplies. Amounts are for FY only.

In cases where multiple ICs provided funding, they will be separated by a ';'.
Example:NHLBI
Funding category: The major mechanism categories used in NIH budget mechanism tables for the President’s budget. A funding mechanism is the type of funded application or transaction used at the NIH. Within each funding mechanism NIH includes programs. Programs can be further refined by specific activity codes. See more information on funding categories. The funding categories in Analytics are as follows:
- Extramural research grants (RPG): These are NIH grant records that have been funded by the extramural research program (ERP). Researchers with RPGs are employed outside of NIH to do scientific research, understand their portfolios (what is being funded), analyze gaps, and perform other grants management duties in relation to their grant records. Activity codes in this group will vary, but the majority begin with R, P, or U. See the Extramural Research Grants (RPG) flag definition for specifics. Learn more about the Office of Extramural Research program (OER).
- Contracts: These are legally binding agreements to acquire goods or services for the direct use or benefit of the government. The award of a contract is based on stated evaluation factors and includes more government oversight and control. In addition, contracts typically require deliverables. Activity codes in this group begin with N. See more information about contracts.
- Interagency agreements (IAA): These are written arrangements between one or more NIH components and one or more government entities outside of the NIH, all of which must have the statutory authority to engage in the arrangement. Such agreements may include, but are not limited to, arrangements to receive and/or provide services, supplies, advice, and counsel involving the exchange of funds. Activity codes in this group begin with Y.
- Intramural: These are NIH grant records that have been funded by the intramural research program (IRP). These researchers are employed by NIH to do scientific research, therefore reporting and understanding the scientific landscape are large parts of their duties. Activity codes in this group will begin with Z. Learn more about intramural research at NIH.
- Training: These are NIH grant records that are focused on training and career development. Activity codes in this group begin with F, T, or K. Learn more about training and career development grants.
Example: Intramural
Grant Number: This field contains the core grant number, which for the majority of grants, includes Activity Code, Admin IC, and serial number. Excluded is the application type at the beginning, along with support year and other suffixes at the end. Learn more details about NIH grant numbers. This core project field is sourced directly from RePORTER and for most activity codes, it follows the aforementioned format. Other grants, such as Interagency Agreements (IAA), may not have all of the same components for the core project number, i.e. "1AA9003-2-0". A full project/full grant number field is available in iSearch and may capture all components of interest.
Example: P30CA012197
Human (Translation Human MeSH %): This is the percentage of the grant's MeSH terms counted as Human research. This is shown as a score between 0 and 1, with 1 being equivalent to 100%, meaning all terms from the article are Human. See more on this methodology

Example:17908272
Linked Literature Publication Year: Provides the publication year for all literature linked to the award’s Core Grant Number. Note that due to the nature of this linkage, grant records from any support year or application type will have the same linked literature. Where a grant is linked to multiple publications, years are separated by a semicolon ';'. Note that publication linkages are made at a core grant level, not on individual applications. Field is blank where no publications are linked.
Example:[2020 TO *]
Linked Literature Relative Citation Ratio (RCR): (For linked publications) RCR is citation-based measure of scientific influence. It is calculated as the number of citations a publication receives per year normalized to citations received by NIH-funded papers published in the same year and field. The median RCR for NIH-funded papers is 1. Therefore, an RCR over 1 indicates more citations/influence than average, whereas an RCR under 1 indicates fewer citations/less influence. Learn more about RCR and how to compare RCR values for non-NIH funded papers. RCR is potentially available for any publication linked to a grant record. More RCR metrics can be seen in the iSearch Analytics Literature dataset or in our publication analysis tool, iCite.

Public Health Relevance: NIH requires applicants to submit public health relevance statements in grant applications to ensure the description of a project's potential to improve public health is clearly articulated. The public health relevance statement should be written in plain language that can be understood by a general audience as well as reviewers and other researchers.
Example:Incidence
RCDC Categories: Congressionally-mandated reporting categories into which NIH projects are categorized. Available for fiscal years 2008 and later. Each project’s spending category designations for each fiscal year are made available the following year as part of the President’s Budget request. RCDC is a computerized process the NIH uses to categorize and report the amount it funded in each of 315 (as of May 2023) categories of disease, condition, or research area. RCDC provides consistent and transparent information to the public about NIH-funded research, providing a complete list of all NIH-funded projects related to each category. Learn more about the Research, Condition, and Disease Categorization (RCDC) system. Be sure to use exact category names if searching this field.
Example:“Acquired Cognitive Impairment”
Research Project Grant (RPG): This is the flag used to designate grants as research project grants (RPG) in iSearch Analytics. Is is the same as the Extramural research grants (RPG) group in the Funding Category field.
The RPG flag assigns status by identifying funding mechanisms (activity codes) associated with the production of literature. It is more comprehensive than other definitions used elsewhere, e.g., in NIH RePORTER. RPG status is assigned using the following process:
All F, T, K (training), L (loan repayment), Z (intramural), and N (contract) mechanisms were removed, deeming them not Analytics RPG. For the remaining mechanisms we found the fraction of awarded grants at the core project level that had at least one publication linked in iSearch, focusing on grants active FY 2008-2017. Mechanisms where fewer than 25% of grants had at least one linked publication in Literature were deemed outside of OPA RPG status (e.g., only 15% of R13s or Conference Grants were linked to a publication). Mechanisms where greater than 50% of grants had at least one linked publication were deemed Analytics RPG (e.g., 96% of R01s were linked to a publication).
- For the marginal category of mechanisms where 25-50% of grants had at least one linked publication, we considered each mechanism individually. Those without a research focus were not included in the Analytics RPG category. For example, 40% of U13s or Conference Cooperative Agreements were linked to a publication. Because the U13 focus is on conferences and not the direct production of research, U13s were not included. Because many mechanisms are composed of grants with a diversity of aims, the identification of research grants at the mechanism level will imperfectly delineate categories.
- The Activity Codes included as RPGs are as follows: D43 DP1 DP2 DP3 DP4 DP5 DP7 G08 G12 M01 OT2 OT3 P01 P20 P30 P40 P41 P42 P50 P51 P60 P2C PL1 PN1 PN2 R00 R01 R03 R15 R16 R18 R21 R22 R23 R24 R25 R28 R29 R33 R34 R35 R36 R37 R38 R41 R42 R43 R44 R50 R55 R56 R61 R90 RC1 RC2 RC3 RC4 RF1 RL1 RL2 RL5RL9 RM1 S06 S07 S10 S11 S21 S22 SB1 SC1 SC2 SC3 U01 U10 U18 U19 U24 U34 U2C U2R U41 U42 U43 U44 U54 U56 UA5 UC1 UC2 UC4 UC7 UF1 UG1 UG3 UG4 UH1 UH2 UH3 UL1 UM1 UM2 UT2
