Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) federal obligations in Maryland

Aging Research and Maryland as a two-key filter

CFDA 93.866 is titled Aging Research. Maryland is the place-of-performance state. $1,142,676,905.60 is the obligation sum on records that carry both keys. The Maryland hub totals every CFDA. The national Aging Research hub totals every state. This tie is the overlap. A Bethesda or Baltimore performance stamp does not, by itself, explain why 405 awards exist, and it does not prove that Maryland aging science is more productive than research coded elsewhere.

Four hundred five awards is a high instrument count compared with program–state cells that concentrate similar dollars on fewer than 20 rows. More rows under $1.14 billion lower the mean. That is a shape-of-the-table observation, not a claim about grant quality.

CFDA 93.866, not every NIH or HHS research line

Aging Research is one catalog number. Allergy and infectious diseases research, general medical sciences, and other 93-series research codes are separate. Folding those lines into $1,142,676,905.60 would misstate this cell. Packet facts are the obligation total, 405 awards, state MD, and CFDA 93.866. No institute roster and no fiscal-year series are included.

The catalog title describes the assistance type. It does not itemize Alzheimer’s trials, geroscience centers, or intramural versus extramural split. Place of performance can sit on a campus, a federal campus, or a statewide MD tag.

Maryland on the geography field

Maryland is USAspending state code MD. A recipient based in another state can still show MD if performance is coded there. Awards coded to the District of Columbia, Virginia, or Pennsylvania stay on other ties. $1,142,676,905.60 is not the National Institutes of Health’s entire Maryland footprint and is not every federal research dollar in the state.

Statewide Maryland federal spending is the parent. CFDA 93.866 is one research line inside that parent. Readers looking for health-center or crisis-response programs in Maryland should use other CFDA joins.

A thicker file and a lower mean

Average obligation is about $2.82 million ($1,142,676,905.60 ÷ 405). That is lower than several other cells in this harvest that pair similar dollars with far fewer awards. A lower mean flags more instruments, not smaller scientific need, and not a typical R01 size.

Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $1,142,676,905.60 as given. Treat 405 as award records in the aggregate. Obligations are commitments, not outlays.

What this Maryland–93.866 pair is not

A shared state tag does not mean Maryland selected these awards, and it does not mean Aging Research outlays equal $1,142,676,905.60. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation.

Why a thick research overlay still needs the join page

Aging Research in Maryland is the overlay for CFDA 93.866 inside state MD. Four hundred five awards and $1,142,676,905.60 are a thicker research file than many compact or crisis-response cells in this harvest. Thickness does not, by itself, identify Bethesda campuses, Baltimore hospitals, or extramural grantees. The packet has no recipient roster. Missouri’s 93.866 join in this slice is a sibling geography key with 262 awards and a smaller dollar total. Comparing those two cells is legitimate arithmetic. Ranking laboratories from that comparison is not.

Maryland programs holds every CFDA in the state, including health and non-health lines that never appear on this page. The national 93.866 hub holds every state for Aging Research. This join exists because those filters meet. It does not convert $1,142,676,905.60 into a claim about Maryland’s aging population, and it does not treat 405 awards as the number of clinical trials. Obligations are commitments. Outlays, if they exist in another USAspending view, are a different field.

Questions

How much Aging Research funding is obligated in Maryland?

USAspending records $1,142,676,905.60 in CFDA 93.866 obligations with Maryland place of performance, covering 405 awards. That is an obligation aggregate, not outlays.

Why does Maryland have 405 Aging Research awards?

The aggregate contains 405 award records summing to $1,142,676,905.60. The packet does not explain the operational mix. A higher row count lowers the mean versus more concentrated cells.

What is the average Aging Research award in Maryland?

Dividing $1,142,676,905.60 by 405 awards produces about $2.82 million per award. That mean is not a median and not a typical single-investigator grant.

Is this all NIH spending in Maryland?

No. Only CFDA 93.866 is in this cell. Other research and health programs appear on the Maryland programs index.
