Key figures
- CFDA 93.310 shows $11,136,849,016.52 in USAspending obligations.

2,504 awards under $11.14 billion
Assistance listing 93.310 is titled TRANS-NIH RESEARCH SUPPORT in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $11,136,849,016.52. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not a laboratory invoice already paid.
2,504 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $11,136,849,016.52 by 2,504 produces a mean near $4.45 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical modular grant budget and not a per-paper research cost. Cross-cutting research actions can add to $11,136,849,016.52 without matching a single-institute listing’s award mix.
457 organizational recipients appear on those rows. 52 states are coded for place of performance. Neither count converts the obligation total into a headcount of investigators.
457 recipients and 52 states
CFDA 93.310 lists 457 recipients against 2,504 awards. Recipient count is not unique scientists. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores. One university or medical center can hold many awards, which is why 2,504 records can sit on 457 recipients.
Fifty-two states is a coded-jurisdiction span. Extra modifications can lift the 2,504-award count while dollars stay near $11,136,849,016.52. The research-support 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 $11,136,849,016.52 figure for CFDA 93.310 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 93.310 program page. Do not stretch 2,504 awards to cover every research dollar tagged under another listing.
What the 93.310 tables omit
The Trans-NIH Research Support hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a grant abstract file, not a shared-resource catalog, and not a ranking of scientific impact. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $11,136,849,016.52.
Place-of-performance on 52 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 93.310 extract
Start from the four packet facts on CFDA 93.310: $11,136,849,016.52 in obligations, 2,504 awards, 457 recipients, and 52 states. The mean near $4.45 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 457 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 2,504 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $11,136,849,016.52.
Nothing in the extract splits TRANS-NIH RESEARCH SUPPORT into subaccounts, fiscal years, or outlay versus obligation series beyond the stored totals. Those cuts live in other publications. Treat CFDA 93.310 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 2,504 awards and 457 recipients next to the dollars so the record count is visible beside $11,136,849,016.52. 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.
A complete working citation for this listing is $11,136,849,016.52 in USAspending.gov obligations for CFDA 93.310, covering 2,504 awards, 457 recipients, and 52 states, indexed on SpendingVault.

Read the TRANS-NIH RESEARCH SUPPORT hub before inferring a geographic story from the dollar total alone. If a number you expected is missing from $11,136,849,016.52, the usual cause is a different reporting concept rather than a gap in the 2,504 award rows.
