1 The Office of AIDS Research (OAR) provides pass-through funding to the other Institutes for AIDS research. Congress in FY 1999 allocated OAR funds directly to the Institutes. The FY 2000 request consolidated all AIDS research funded by the Institutes under the OAR line. Congress allocated FY 2000 AIDS funds directly to the Institutes. The FY 2000 request figures distribute the OAR request among the Institutes for comparability.
2 FY 2000 figures include $40 million in advance appropriations.
3 New center created in FY 1999.
Totals do not include amounts transferred from Departmental Administration for matching funds (see Table 9).
Note: The FY 2000 omnibus bill delays the release of $3 billion in FY 2000 NIH funds until September 29, 2000, one day before the end of FY 2000. The bill does not specify the distribution of the total among institutes.

1 The Labor-HHS bill provides $20 million in the Office of the Secretary's Public Health and Social Services Fund for transfer to NIH for partnerships with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to accelerate new antibiotics development. There is also $49 million for CDC for bioterrorism-related R&D. These funds are listed under Departmental Administration.
Note: The FY 2000 omnibus bill delays the release of $3 billion in FY 2000 NIH funds until September 29, 2000, one day before the end of FY 2000. The bill does not specify the distribution of the total among institutes. The bill also delays $500 million in CDC funds and $450 million in HRSA funds until September 29, 2000.
