2012的budget有所增加。要成立新的 National Center for Advancing Translational
Sciences http://news.sciencemag.org/scienceinsider/2011/12/nih-doe-appea
NIH would receive a $239 million raise to $30.6 billion—a modest 0.8%
increase. (These figures take into account a 0.2% trim to a broader bill
that includes NIH.) That is less than the 3.3% boost requested by the Obama
Administration and included in an earlier House bill, but more than the
slight cut that a Senate panel had previously approved. The bill also
follows through on a top priority for NIH Director Francis Collins: It
creates a $576 million center aimed at moving basic discoveries into the
clinic, the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences. The bill
also dismantles NIH's National Center for Research Resources.
