Biological Sciences federal funding in Colorado

Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) shows $320,271,977 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Colorado, on 123 awards. 123 awards against $320,271,977 imply a mean near $2,603,837.21 per record. NSF Biological Sciences awards and continuations can explain large dollars beside a limited row count. This page is a catalog-program × state join, not a PI, lab, or award-year census and not an outlay conversion. USAspending.gov is the source table.

Key figures

  • CFDA 47.074 × Colorado records $320,271,977 in USAspending obligations.
  • 123 awards sit under that sum; the mean is about $2,603,837.21 per record, not a typical unit.
  • Matching Biological Sciences to Colorado is not causation and not a PI, lab, or award-year census.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.

123 Colorado Biological Sciences awards on USAspending

Read Biological Sciences in Colorado as the filtered table; this page is the prose overlay for the same cell. Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) with Colorado place of performance sums to $320,271,977 on 123 awards. USAspending.gov is the source. The join is not a PI, lab, or award-year census.

Implied mean obligation is about $2,603,837.21 ($320,271,977 ÷ 123). That ratio is not a typical NSF BIO grant year and not a typical lab budget. NSF Biological Sciences awards and continuations explain large dollars beside a limited row count. Recipients are unpublished.

Denver did not earn the sum by sitting on a CO tag. Matching 47.074 to Colorado is not a ranking. Awards tagged to Utah, Wyoming, or New Mexico are other cells. NSF geosciences, NIH, or USDA research CFDAs stay outside $320,271,977 unless they also carry 47.074. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. The overlay Biological Sciences in Colorado is the live table.

CFDA 47.074 without a lab directory

Official catalog title: BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES. That string is NSF Assistance Listings language. It does not grade Colorado. The nationwide CFDA 47.074 page includes other states, so it is not this cell.

NSF Award Search, BIO directorate reports, and university grant pages live elsewhere. Mixing those files with this join would invent a per-PI dollar figure the packet does not support. CU-Boulder-versus-CSU folklore is ordinary speech, not a packet field. Other NSF directorate listings stay outside this cell unless they also carry 47.074.

Colorado's research stack besides NSF Biological Sciences

Colorado federal spending is the all-program parent. Colorado programs lists other catalogs beside 47.074. Quoting $320,271,977 as the state's complete federal footprint would drop every other line, including NSF geosciences, NIH, or USDA research CFDAs.

Place of performance as Colorado locates tagged awards; it does not deposit the dollars in Denver's treasury. Boulder is not a named recipient of $320,271,977. Fort Collins folklore is not a metro split of the 123 awards.

BIO obligations are not field seasons already completed

$320,271,977 remains an obligation aggregate. Outlays are unpublished. Drawdowns can lag. Cite the commitment field, not a cash story. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 47.074 × CO pair.

Boulder-versus-Fort Collins folklore is not a split of the 123 awards. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a fiscal year. Keep the obligation label on $320,271,977. Do not treat a state appropriations chart as this cell unless it uses CFDA 47.074, Colorado geography, and the obligation metric.

How to cite the 47.074–Colorado pair

Cite: Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) obligated $320,271,977 on 123 awards coded to Colorado, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Keep the word obligations. Internal links: Biological Sciences in Colorado, CFDA 47.074, Colorado federal spending, Colorado programs, and All spending ties.

Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 123-award count. Prefer the overlay Biological Sciences in Colorado when the live table and this snapshot diverge. CFDA 47.074, Colorado federal spending, Colorado programs, and All spending ties are parent hubs, not competing sums.

What 123 Colorado Biological Sciences rows cannot prove

A ties page will not rank Colorado against Utah, Wyoming, or New Mexico. Peer Biological Sciences totals are not in these facts. 123 awards will not be recast as a PI, lab, or award-year census. Correlation is not causation.

Keep Biological Sciences, Colorado, $320,271,977, and 123 awards together in every reuse. Place of performance as CO locates the tagged awards; it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Colorado after obligation. Denver folklore is not a split of the 123 awards, and Boulder is not a named recipient of $320,271,977.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $320,271,977 is the net total supplied in the facts. Treat 123 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 123 finished program years. Award modifications can sit beside base records in the same row count. The mean of about $2,603,837.21 per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical NSF BIO grant year and not a typical lab budget.

Questions

How much Biological Sciences is obligated in Colorado?
USAspending.gov records $320,271,977 in CFDA 47.074 obligations across 123 awards coded to Colorado. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Colorado's full federal total. Keep both the program name and Colorado in any citation.
Do 123 awards mean 123 Colorado biology labs?
Award count is a row count. $320,271,977 ÷ 123 is about $2,603,837.21 per record as a mean, not a typical NSF BIO grant year and not a typical lab budget. NSF Biological Sciences awards and continuations can dominate dollars. This packet does not list recipients. See Biological Sciences in Colorado for the stored table.
Is this Colorado's entire NSF book?
No. The $320,271,977 and 123 awards are USAspending.gov obligation records for CFDA 47.074 with a Colorado geography tag. NSF geosciences, NIH, or USDA research CFDAs are separate joins. Those dollars sit outside this cell. Mixing those files with this join would invent a figure the packet does not support.
Where is the live Colorado × 47.074 overlay?
Biological Sciences in Colorado is the overlay. See Colorado federal spending, Colorado programs, CFDA 47.074, and All spending ties. Later bulk files override this snapshot. Keep the obligation label on $320,271,977. Do not invent a fiscal year.

USAspending.gov CFDA program aggregates by place of performance state. Obligations are not outlays.
