1 FY 2001 Approved includes $63 million appropriated to NIEHS in the VA-HUD bill.
2 The FY 2001 request consolidates NIH-wide AIDS research into the Office of AIDS Research ($2.1 bil.). FY 2001 request figures adjusted for comparability with FY 2000 and FY 2001 Approved figures, which distribute AIDS funds among the institutes.
3 FY 2000 includes advance appropriation of $40 million. FY 2001 figures do not include $26 million advance appropriation requested but not granted for FY 2002.
4 New institute for FY 2001 created by Public Law 106-525. Comparable FY 2000 and FY 2001 request funding is in Office of the Director. Another new institute, the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, was created in December, 2000. FY 2001 funding will be transferred from other institutes' budgets.
