For 10 weeks starting in mid-July, NIH went on a tear.

They issued 23,436 grants worth $14.9 billion—5k grants & $5 billion more than the same 10 weeks in FY24.

In fiscal week 46 alone (mid-Aug), they awarded $2.1 billion in grants, nearly double their best week in FY24.

NIH staff are amazing. 🤩
