Grant and Contract Awards

The following displays the number and dollar amount of grant and contract awards by state and country with details for institutions receiving more than $15 million in support from NCI.

Grants are used when no substantial programmatic involvement is anticipated between NCI and the grant recipient during performance of the financially assisted activities and when there is no expectation on the part of NCI of a specified service or product for NCI.

Contracts are used to procure cancer research services and other resources that the federal government needs to advance the NCI cancer research mission.

Grant and contract data includes fiscal year 2023 (FY23) Cancer Moonshot funds and excludes FY21 through 2018 Cancer Moonshot carryover obligations and the Breast Cancer Stamp. Moving forward, grants and contract awards will include all NCI obligations for grants and contract awards for each fiscal year. Per the National Institutes of Health's Office of Extramural Research, "Count Rules" and guidelines policy are updated each fiscal year with limits based on the cost center and division. A "0" indicates an award funded by other NIH Institutes that NCI also co-funded.
