<li><strong>NIMH Portfolio Balance: Quality Science Comes First</strong>: <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="2c970f6b-1eac-4991-b638-0fea85ad5e92" href="/about/director/messages/2018/nimhs-portfolio-balance-quality-science-comes-first">NIMH performed a portfolio analysis</a> to examine the balance in funding across fundamental basic research, disease-related basic research, and therapeutics development and services research. Overall, the findings suggest three takeaway messages: 1) regardless of how the portfolio is analyzed, the NIMH balance has shifted toward basic research; 2) changing scientific priorities likely played a role in this shift; and, 3) there are signs of a reversal showing an increase in funding for therapeutics development and services research. Moving forward, NIMH will continue to prioritize <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="5f79e4d5-feb9-4cb3-9758-b47fd480ca87" href="/about/director/messages/2018/excellent-science">excellent science</a> across all areas of the portfolio.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>NIH Portfolio Analyses</strong>:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>How Many Researchers, Revisited: A Look at Cumulative Investigator Funding Rates</strong>: NIH conducted a portfolio analysis of <a href="https://nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2018/03/07/how-many-researchers-revisited-a-look-at-cumulative-investigator-funding-rates/" rel="external">cumulative investigator funding rates <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a>, and found that NIH remains in a state of hyper-competition, but possibly less so than in the past few years. In addition, the number of unique applicants appears to be stabilizing after many years of uninterrupted growth, possibly reflecting a decline in the numbers of postdoctoral fellows in biomedical science. This analysis is a follow up to a <a href="https://nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2016/05/31/how-many-researchers/" rel="external">previous portfolio analysis <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> which demonstrated that an increasing number of researchers were vying for limited dollars.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Impact of Teams Receiving NIH Funding</strong>: NIH also undertook a portfolio analysis on the <a href="https://nexus.od.nih.gov/all/2018/04/04/theres-no-i-in-team-assessing-impact-of-teams-receiving-nih-funding/" rel="external">impact of teams receiving NIH funding <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a>. Team size was measured by counting the number of co-authors on published papers. Results showed that the number of authors on publications resulting from NIH support have steadily increased over time. Further, they found a positive association between number of authors and citation influence, consistent with the growing importance of team science.</li>

<li><strong>Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 Budget</strong>: On March 23, 2018, President Trump signed the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018 (Public Law No. 115-141) providing funds through September 30, 2018. The amount provided $1.712 billion to NIMH, representing a 6.7 percent increase over the FY 2017 appropriation. NIMH anticipates awarding approximately 600 new and competing research project grants (RPGs) in FY 2018, with an estimated success rate of 23 percent, as can be seen in Figure 1.
|
||
<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
As in past years, NIMH expects to support at least 75 percent of the applications up to the 20th percentile. Moreover, the Institute will give special consideration to applications from <a href="https://grants.nih.gov/policy/new_investigators/index.htm" rel="external">Early Stage Investigators <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a>. With the exception of specific programmatic adjustments, NIMH will fully fund modular and non-modular grant awards. Future year commitments for modular grant awards are expected to remain consistent with the FY 2018 awarded amount. Non-competing continuation awards from FY 2018 will be made at the committed level, and out-year commitments for continuation awards in FY 2019 and beyond will remain unchanged.

Figure 2 shows the NIMH budget in appropriated (current) versus constant (FY 2000) dollars. Constant dollars are “inflation adjusted” for variations in the purchasing power of the dollar over time. Dollar amounts are adjusted based on the Biomedical Research and Development Price Index (BRDPI). The annual change in BRDPI indicates how much the NIH budget must change to maintain purchasing power similar to FY 2000.

<li><strong>Outlook for FY 2019</strong>: In February 2018, the President submitted an outline for the FY 2019 budget request to Congress. The request for NIH is $34.8 billion, a decrease of $2.2 billion from the enacted FY 2018 appropriated level including 21st Century Cures funding. The <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="7457103b-ac7e-471d-8be1-e783747f639c" href="/about/budget/fy-2019-budget-congressional-justification">request for NIMH is $1.6 billion</a>, a decrease of $143 million from the FY 2018 appropriated level including 21st Century Cures funding. In April 2018, the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, HHS, Education, and Related Agencies held a hearing with the NIH Director and several NIH Institute and Center Directors. In May 2018, the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, HHS, Education and Related Agencies held a hearing to review the budget request for HHS. The House Appropriations Subcommittee members are drafting the FY 2019 Labor/HHS/Education appropriations bill, which contains the NIH appropriation.</li>

<h3 data-coder-anchor="2">Notable NIMH Grants</h3>
|

|
||
<p>The following is a selection of the Institute’s most recently funded projects that exemplify our efforts to accelerate research on mental illnesses, and to advance the <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="7db249bf-8c01-4a5b-b70e-2aedc818e0f7" href="/about/strategic-planning-reports">NIMH Strategic Plan for Research</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>NIMH is funding two projects on RNA post-transcriptional regulation.
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a key RNA regulatory pathway linked to numerous neurocognitive disorders, yet it is a relatively unexplored mechanism for synaptic function. <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9541044" rel="external">Dilek Colak, Ph.D. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (Weill Medical College of Cornell University) plans to examine the role of NMD on synaptic activity and its impact on cognitive function. This project could provide new insights into mechanisms underlying synaptic dysfunction and neurocognitive disorders.</li>
|
||
<li>Most neurons live throughout the lifespan of an organism, but internal mechanisms that contribute to neuronal survival are not well understood. <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9500703" rel="external">Sika Zheng, Ph.D. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (University of California, Riverside School of Medicine) plans to apply new experimental strategies to determine the true breadth of alternative splicing NMD (AS-NMD) regulation in the brain, and the role of AS-NMD in neuronal survival. This project has the potential to uncover functional significance of AS-NMD in development and brain disease.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>Major early life stressors increase risk for mental illnesses, including depression. <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9533857" rel="external">Ian Gotlib, Ph.D. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (Stanford University) aims to identify how the timing and type of early life stressors contribute to such risk. Dr. Gotlib and colleagues will follow children as they age from 13 to 18 years old – a high-risk age range for developing depression – while collecting detailed clinical, neural, and hormonal measures. The design of the project will allow for a clearer understanding of when and where the brain changes in response to early life stress, and how such changes may increase risk for developing depression. This project has the potential to inform personalized interventions based on the nature of early stress exposure.</li>
|
||
<li>Currently, there are only three primary treatments for school-aged children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): psychosocial interventions, stimulant medications, and a combination of the two. These interventions have short-term impact on behavioral symptoms but do not address the underlying cognitive deficits associated with ADHD. <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9431957" rel="external">Michael Kofler, Ph.D. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (Florida State University) plans to test a novel computerized training intervention to improve working memory in children with ADHD. This research aims to elucidate the role of working memory in ADHD symptomatology and academic functioning, and may lead to a novel intervention for children with ADHD.</li>
|
||
<li>Despite the success of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) to diminish peripheral infection, HIV-1 can establish infection in the central nervous system (CNS) and result in HIV-1 associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Once infected, the CNS acts as a viral reservoir that is difficult to treat. <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9560481" rel="external">Raymond Schinazi, Ph.D., DSc. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (Emory University) and <a href="https://reporter.nih.gov/project-details/9560481" rel="external">William Tyor, M.D. <i class="fa-solid fa-arrow-up-right-from-square ext-link-icon"></i></a> (Emory University) will examine unique dynamics of HIV infection in the CNS and explore novel therapeutic strategies that target mononuclear phagocytes in a macaque model. These strategies will focus on eliminating the HIV reservoir and reducing inflammation, potentially leading to improved treatments to reduce risk for HAND.</li>

|
||
<p>This listing of potential future initiatives is meant to provide the earliest possible alert to the field of our research interests and of potential upcoming announcements to solicit that research. While NIMH plans to proceed with these initiatives, their publication and timing are not certain and depend on sufficient funding. The titles and brief descriptions are consistent with the information available at the time of concept clearance. The resultant FOAs may differ from the concepts in the final wording of their titles or other aspects. To send questions about a specific concept, follow the “Submit Comments” link at the bottom of the description.</p>
