ARRA Program: Awards

 

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) appropriated $1 billion for the construction and renovation of biomedical research facilities across the United States. A total of 148 ARRA awards were granted through ORIP to support the construction or renovation of 64 animal facilities, 56 research laboratories, 17 clinical research facilities or laboratories, 8 imaging facilities, and 7 data centers.

The nation’s biomedical research enterprise is the beneficiary of more than 3.36 million square feet of newly constructed or renovated biomedical research space funded by ARRA. The ARRA funds were allocated for the construction and renovation of research, animal, and core facilities, which comprise 54%, 30%, and 16% of the of the entire obligation, respectively. These facilities have helped enable research in a broad array of scientific areas, including HIV/AIDS, aging, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, and infectious diseases. Data self-reported by NIH grantees suggest that the ARRA-funded construction projects have created thousands of jobs in the biomedical construction industry that would not have been possible without the ARRA funding.
