Biomedical research and training in Massachusetts

USAspending.gov records $1,567,573,602.23 in Biomedical Research and Research Training obligations (CFDA 93.859) with Massachusetts place of performance across 826 awards. 826 instruments against $1.57 billion produce a mean of about $1.90 million per award. This page joins NIH/NIGMS catalog 93.859 to the MA geography tag. It is not a trainee, lab, or training grant census and not cash already paid.

Key figures

  • CFDA 93.859 shows $1,567,573,602.23 in Massachusetts obligations on 826 awards.
  • The mean is about $1.90 million per award.
  • The catalog is Biomedical Research And Research Training, not other NIH institute programs.
  • Massachusetts is a place-of-performance tag, not a trainee, lab, or training grant census.
  • Figures are obligations, not outlays.

NIGMS dollars tagged to Massachusetts institutions

CFDA 93.859 is titled BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND RESEARCH TRAINING. Filtered to Massachusetts place of performance, obligations sum to $1,567,573,602.23 on 826 awards. The national Biomedical Research And Research Training hub includes every state. Massachusetts's spending hub includes every program. This tie is the intersection. $1,567,573,602.23 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of trainees, labs, or training grants in Boston, Worcester, or Springfield.

NIGMS research and training typically posts as hundreds of competitive assistance records. The join does not name recipients, split Greater Boston and the Pioneer Valley, or count trainees, labs, or training grants. Packet facts stop at $1,567,573,602.23, 826 awards, MA, and 93.859. Correlation is not causation.

93.859 is not other NIH institute programs in Massachusetts

other NIH institute catalogs such as mental-health research (CFDA 93.242) sit on other Catalog numbers. Mixing those dollars into $1,567,573,602.23 would invent a broader total than this 93.859 × MA cell contains. Facts available: Massachusetts, CFDA 93.859, $1,567,573,602.23, 826 awards. Recipient names, subawards, and trainee, lab, or training grant counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Biomedical Research And Research Training, not a ranking of Massachusetts outcomes. Dividing $1,567,573,602.23 by 826 yields about $1.90 million per award—an NIGMS research or training award, not a typical stipend. Unique recipients are unpublished. 826 is not a count of trainees, labs, or training grants.

Massachusetts geography on the Biomedical Research Training tag

MA is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Boston, Worcester, or Springfield can share the tag. Awards coded to Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, New York, or Vermont stay outside $1,567,573,602.23 even when a metro, watershed, or service area approaches the border. Greater Boston and other in-state campuses collapse into one MA tag. The code does not convert $1.57 billion into a campus map.

Massachusetts federal spending is the all-program parent. 93.859 is one row on Massachusetts programs. $1.57 billion is not the state's complete federal footprint. Open Biomedical Research And Research Training in Massachusetts for the filtered table, CFDA 93.859 for 93.859 without a Massachusetts filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,567,573,602.23.

Reading 826 awards under $1.57 billion

$1,567,573,602.23 ÷ 826 is about $1.90 million per award. That average is an NIGMS research or training award, not a typical stipend. It is not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 826 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 826 finished training awardss.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $1,567,573,602.23 is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register on this page, you cannot see how many of the 826 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $1,567,573,602.23 without changing the join key of 93.859 and MA.

What the Biomedical Research Training–Massachusetts pair does not prove

A large 93.859 total tagged to Massachusetts does not measure workforce pipeline outcomes, and it does not equal degrees awarded. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $1,567,573,602.23 on 826 awards for Biomedical Research And Research Training in Massachusetts.

Keep both sides of the join: Biomedical Research And Research Training and Massachusetts, obligations only. Do not annualize $1,567,573,602.23 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 826 as a trainee, lab, or training grant census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a program story.

Using the Biomedical Research Training–Massachusetts overlay

The overlay target is the Massachusetts × CFDA 93.859 table. Open Biomedical Research And Research Training in Massachusetts when you want the same $1,567,573,602.23 / 826-awards cell in the site's data chrome. CFDA 93.859 drops the Massachusetts filter. Massachusetts federal spending drops the CFDA filter. Massachusetts programs lists other catalogs beside Biomedical Research And Research Training. All spending ties is the directory of other pairs.

This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that Massachusetts won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 93.859 plus MA. Obligations of $1,567,573,602.23 are not outlays. Cite Biomedical Research And Research Training together with Massachusetts whenever you reuse $1,567,573,602.23. 826 remains an award-record count on USAspending.gov, not a person, facility, or project census.
