**Notes:**
NIH's FY 2008 budget following the 1.747% rescission is $29,228,541,000, an increase of 1.1% and $328,654,000 over FY 2007.
The NIH Common Fund/Roadmap budget increased by 2.6% and $12,608,000.
NCRR's FY 2008 pre-rescission budget is $1,169,884,000 and after the $20,438,000 rescission is applied, NCRR’s FY 2008 post-rescission budget is $1,149,446,000, a 1.4% and $16,206,000 increase over FY 2007. The increase covers: 	
Funding for the K30 program that was transferred to NCRR in FY 2008. The FY 2008 commitments for K30 grants that will not be subsumed within the CTSAs are estimated at $7,000,000
$10,000,000 for CTSAs.
Only NIAID (+ 4.4%), OD (+ 5.9%), and B&F (+ 46.7%) received a higher percentage increase than NCRR (+ 1.4%).
Only NIAID (+ $192,947,000), OD (+ $62,198,000), and B&F (+ $37,885) received a higher dollar increase than NCRR (+ $16,206,000).

## Slide 4

**Notes:**
FY 2005 reflects a budget decrease of $83,528,000, or 7%, from FY 2004.  
This is primarily a result of Extramural Construction funding decreasing by 75%, or $88,748,000.  
FY 2006 reflects total elimination of the NCRR Extramural Construction program, a decrease of $19,528,000, or 1.8%, from FY 2005.   
FY 2007 reflects the reallocation of 50% of the $13,257,000 Roadmap tap to CTSAs and 50% to other NCRR programs.  There was also a one-time $34,000,000 increase directed to SIG. 
In FY 2008, the $34,000,000 FY 2007 increase provided to SIG was redirected to the CTSAs.  FY 2008 also includes an additional $10,613,000 for the transfer of the trans-NIH K30 Clinical Research Curriculum Award program to NCRR. 

## Slide 5

**Notes:**
There are currently 24 CTSAs awarded, 12 from the FY 2006 cohort and 12 from the FY 2007 cohort.  
We project that the last GCRCs will be funded in FY 2011.  

## Slide 6

**Notes:**
Assuming NCRR’s contribution continues to increase $20,000,000 each fiscal year, funding support from Roadmap will be required through FY 2014.

## Slide 7

**Notes:**
The IDeA budget supports existing, new, and re-competing INBRE & COBRE awards.   The current INBRE awards are on a 5 year cycle and the majority of them will re-compete in FY 2009.  
In FY 2007, NCRR funded three new IDeA COBREs focused on studies of diabetes, cartilage and joint health, and the molecular regulation of cell development. 

## Slide 8

**Notes:**
In FY 2007, NCRR launched the RCMI Translational Research Network, a consortium of RCMI-supported Institutions.  It will enable clinical and translational researchers to collaborate more efficiently and effectively across the RCMI centers and with other researchers. 
The program’s highest funding priority will be to sustain the range of activities supported  by the program, including improving network connectivity through the RCMI Translational Research Network. 

## Slide 9

**Notes:**
Includes NPRC P51 Centers grants only
During FY 2007, the NPRCs provided support to more than 2,000 investigators.  To facilitate these studies, the NPRCs house 28,000 NHPs, 62% of which are rhesus monkeys, the most widely used NHP for HIV research and translational studies. 
In FY 2007, the NCRR funded an initiative to increase training of clinical veterinarians in the field of NHP clinical medicine. 
In FY 2009, the program’s highest funding priority will be to maintain the breadth of activities supported by the program. An activity of the NPRCs is working with the CTSA consortium to help clinical researchers increase their knowledge of and access to animal models, such as NHP. 

## Slide 10

**Notes:**
FY 2007 reflects a one-time $34,000,000 increase directed to Shared Instrumentation Grant Program.  In FY 2008, the funds were redirected to CTSAs.
