Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs — CFDA 93.279

5,019 awards under $11.97 billion

Assistance listing 93.279 is titled DRUG USE AND ADDICTION RESEARCH PROGRAMS in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $11,966,347,937.16. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not a laboratory outlay and not a treatment-episode count.

5,019 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $11,966,347,937.16 by 5,019 produces a mean near $2.38 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical grant budget line a reader might recall from a funding opportunity and not a per-patient research cost. Many research actions can add to $11,966,347,937.16 without any single row dominating the table.

701 organizational recipients appear on those rows. 51 states are coded for place of performance. Neither count converts the obligation total into a headcount of investigators.

701 recipients and 51 states

CFDA 93.279 lists 701 recipients against 5,019 awards. Recipient count is not unique scientists. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores. One university or institute can hold many awards, which is why 5,019 records can sit on 701 recipients.

Fifty-one states is a coded-jurisdiction span. Extra modifications can lift the 5,019-award count while dollars stay near $11,966,347,937.16. The research hub keeps dollars, awards, recipients, and states visible so one statistic is not inferred from another.

Obligations versus research outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $11,966,347,937.16 figure for CFDA 93.279 can include multi-year commitments that will disburse later. A separate institute budget justification or a clinical-trials registry is a different publication. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 93.279 program page. Do not stretch 5,019 awards to cover every addiction-research dollar tagged under another listing.

What the 93.279 tables omit

The Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a grant abstract file, not a patient roster, and not a ranking of study quality. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $11,966,347,937.16.

Place-of-performance on 51 states is a coding field. A multi-site award coded to one cell can dominate geography while work occurs in several locations. Read the program page before any state split.

A worked reading of the 93.279 extract

Start from the four packet facts on CFDA 93.279: $11,966,347,937.16 in obligations, 5,019 awards, 701 recipients, and 51 states. The mean near $2.38 million per award is a quotient from those two packet totals, not a typical unit cost and not a household or client rate. If a later USAspending.gov file adds a few large actions, dollars can jump while 701 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 5,019 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $11,966,347,937.16.

Nothing in the extract splits DRUG USE AND ADDICTION RESEARCH PROGRAMS into subaccounts, fiscal years, or outlay versus obligation series beyond the stored totals. Those cuts live in other publications. Treat CFDA 93.279 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 5,019 awards and 701 recipients next to the dollars so the record count is visible beside $11,966,347,937.16. Name the series as obligations, not outlays, every time the figure is reused. Agency pages show awarding organizations; they do not replace this listing’s obligation total.

Read the DRUG USE AND ADDICTION RESEARCH PROGRAMS hub before inferring a geographic story from the dollar total alone. If a number you expected is missing from $11,966,347,937.16, the usual cause is a different reporting concept rather than a gap in the 5,019 award rows.
