Aging research (CFDA 93.866) in California 11th District (CA-11)
Place-of-performance CA-11 crossed with Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) yields $925,270,989.79 in USAspending.gov obligations on 246 awards. Two hundred forty-six aging-research awards equal about nine percent of CA-11’s district obligation total — a mid-volume NIA cell, not a clinic census. That pair is Aging Research and California 11th District (CA-11) — not California’s entire federal inflow, not Aging Research nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 9.2% of this district’s published obligation total ($10,066,871,008.04). Implied average obligation is about $3,761,264.19 ($925,270,989.79 ÷ 246). Correlation is not causation.

- Cite USAspending.gov; quote California 11th District and CFDA 93.866 if live tables moved.
- California federal spending and All spending ties are parents and an index, not amounts to add into $925,270,989.79.
The California 11th District (CA-11) filter on NIA aging research
CFDA 93.866 and congressional district CA-11 meet here. $925,270,989.79 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Aging Research’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to California 11th District (CA-11), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split intramural from extramural, and it does not name labs. 246 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a clinic census, a trial-enrollment file, or a named-investigator roster.
Dividing $925,270,989.79 by 246 yields about $3,761,264.19 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a published cost per grant and not a typical R01. 246 awards is a moderate research file, similar in row count to the 93.855 cells on this slice but a different CFDA. Do not treat CA-11’s 93.866 cell as a synonym for every Aging research account nationwide. Open California 11th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 93.866 for CFDA 93.866 without the CA-11 filter, California federal spending for every program in the California extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $925,270,989.79.
The CFDA 93.866 Aging Research
USAspending labels CFDA 93.866 as Aging Research. That catalog number produced $925,270,989.79 when crossed with California 11th District (CA-11) place of performance. The program hub does not require CA-11 geography. The district hub does not require Aging research. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 246 awards. The packet does not split intramural from extramural, and it does not name labs.
Correlation is not causation: California 11th District (CA-11) did not cause $925,270,989.79 by existing as a large or small place, and research employment figures are not packet facts. The join is 93.866 × CA-11 only. It is not a clinic census, a trial-enrollment file, or a named-investigator roster. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.
Reading the CA-11 stamp
California 11th District (CA-11) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list CA-11 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other California districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 93.866. California 11th District (CA-11) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside California. Other California districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 93.866. California 11th District (CA-11) is a numbered geography. California 50th’s 93.855 pair is allergy and infectious-diseases research, not aging research.
California federal spending shows how CFDA 93.866 sits beside other programs in the same state extract. $925,270,989.79 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split California 11th District (CA-11) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different CFDA stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Aging Research. The district-wide obligation total published here is $10,066,871,008.04; $925,270,989.79 is the Aging research slice of that denominator.
USAspending obligations on this pair
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $925,270,989.79 is that kind of sum for Aging Research inside CA-11 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. This packet does not split assistance from contracts. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $925,270,989.79 as given. Treating $925,270,989.79 as studies already completed confuses obligation with outlay.
California’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 246-row Aging research cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 246 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors and not labs, trials, or investigators. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($3,761,264.19) is a concentration statistic, not a published cost per grant and not a typical R01. Do not add CA-50’s allergy-research dollars into 93.866. Investigator names are unpublished.
Citing $925,270,989.79 without dropping a join side
Cite USAspending.gov: Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) obligated $925,270,989.79 on 246 awards coded to California 11th District (CA-11). Name Aging Research and California 11th District (CA-11) together. Keep the obligation word. If California 11th District or CFDA 93.866 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a clinic census, a trial-enrollment file, or a named-investigator roster. 9.2% of $10,066,871,008.04 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. An nih reporter extract is a different series unless it uses CFDA 93.866, CA-11 geography, and the obligation metric.
Row count versus dollar concentration
246 awards is a moderate research file, similar in row count to the 93.855 cells on this slice but a different CFDA. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-recipient story tempting; the packet still does not name labs, trial titles, or investigator names. The implied mean (about $3,761,264.19) and the district share (9.2% of $10,066,871,008.04) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer California 11th District and CFDA 93.866 if the live tables moved.
Questions
- How much Aging research spending is coded to California 11th District (CA-11)?
- USAspending.gov lists $925,270,989.79 in Aging Research obligations across 246 awards with place of performance in California 11th District (CA-11). CFDA 93.866 × CA-11 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not California’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 9.2% of the district’s published total ($10,066,871,008.04). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $3,761,264.19, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Do 246 awards mean 246 labs, trials, or investigators in CA-11?
- No. Award count is a row count of USAspending actions and can include continuations and modifications. It is not a count of labs, trials, or investigators. The packet does not name recipients. See California 11th District for named lines as USAspending stored them. The packet does not split intramural from extramural, and it does not name labs.
- Is $925,270,989.79 cash already paid in California 11th District (CA-11)?
- No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $925,270,989.79 as studies already completed confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 246 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.
- Why is the implied average $3,761,264.19 not a typical award?
- The average is $925,270,989.79 divided by 246 awards, about $3,761,264.19. Thick files pull the mean down; thin files pull it up. Neither case publishes a typical instrument. Modifications add rows. Recipients are unpublished. Use the ratio only as a concentration statistic.
