UNMC/TIG Partnership To assist UNMC to increase its competitiveness for federal research and training grants, with emphasis on non-NIH funding. Areas of work:

• Assessment and Analysis• Conduct SWOT analysis

• Infrastructure Improvement• Agency Assistance/Opportunity Identification

• Identify and assist UNMC in pursuing federal grant opportunities particularly at the NSF

• Proposal review and development• Project implementation assistance

Current Climate

Page 11: A Presentation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center Federal Funding Opportunities Workshop The Implementation Group, Inc. December 13-14, 2005.

Key Budget and Economic PointsThe Recent Past To date, the United States has allocated $351 billion for military

operations, security and reconstruction costs in Iraq and Afghanistan. The U.S. Congress approved roughly $70 billion in emergency spending

for disasters.The Immediate Future The FY2006 Defense Appropriations Bill contains an additional $50 billion

for military operations, security and reconstruction costs in Iraq and Afghanistan.

There is an additional $100–200 billion in emergency spending for the recent disasters.

“Baby Boom” retirement era will give rise to much larger annual Medicare expenditures.

Escalating costs associated with maintaining the Federal debt.

R&D in the FY 2006 Budget Federal R&D at all-time high of $132 billion this year, but

would barely increase (0.1%) in 2006. In FY 2006, federal research funding would fall 1.4 percent

to $54.9 billion The FY 2006 budget represents a downward shift from

recent trends Cuts across the federal R&D portfolio NSF: most research directorates would stay flat for three

years. Steep cuts proposed to education programs. NIH: budget would increase just 0.5 percent. RPG success

rate would fall to 21 percent. USDA: boosts for competitive grants, but cuts to formula

funds.

outpaced growth across all institutions

NIH: UNMC federal R&D is dominated by NIH (85% - 95% of total)

DoD: UNMC shows sporadic peaks in DoD but no consistent growth despite DoD growth across all institutions

NSF: UNMC shows no consistent growth patterns at NSF

Conclusion

The Pot 'O Gold!Opportunities exist for UNMC at NSF, DoE, NASA, and other agencies

National Aeronautics and Space Administration

Page 34: A Presentation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center Federal Funding Opportunities Workshop The Implementation Group, Inc. December 13-14, 2005.

FY 06 NASA By The Numbers

Total: $16.4 billion (+ 1.3%) R&D: $11.5 billion (+ 7.3%) Science, Aeronautics, and Exploration (SAE):

$9.7 billion (+7.6%) Biological/Life Sciences: $500 million (est.)

Page 35: A Presentation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center Federal Funding Opportunities Workshop The Implementation Group, Inc. December 13-14, 2005.

Cuts to NASA’s Research Portfolio Aeronautics research portfolio:

- down 2.5 percent to $938 million Earth Sciences:

- down 7.3 percent to $2.1 billion Biological and Physical Sciences:

- down 13.6 percent to $799 million- NASA is dramatically restructuring and downsizing its

biological and physical sciences research portfolio into a Human Systems Research and Technology program more narrowly focused on research topics relevant to human space flight.

OBPR Headquarters Organizational Chart

Page 37: A Presentation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center Federal Funding Opportunities Workshop The Implementation Group, Inc. December 13-14, 2005.

OBPR Enterprise Strategy

Five organizing questions are the basis for the Biological and Physical Research Enterprise Strategy:1. How can we assure the survival of humans traveling far from Earth? 2. How does life respond to gravity and space environments? 3. What new opportunities can research bring to expand understanding

of the laws of nature and enrich lives on Earth? 4. What technology must we create to enable the next explorers to go

beyond where we have been? 5. How can we educate and inspire the next generation to take the

journey?

Page 38: A Presentation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center Federal Funding Opportunities Workshop The Implementation Group, Inc. December 13-14, 2005.

Biological/Life Sciences Research

Estimated budget: $400 million in FY06 Supports safe human presence in space Research to control space flight risks to humans from

radiation, reduced gravity, and isolation Pursues fundamental biological questions from cell to

tissues to organisms to ecosystems which produce results that support

• Methods enabling human explorations of space;• Understanding of biological systems; and• Improving human health on Earth

Summary: Trends in Federal R&D over the Last Decade

Big science has hit the life sciences All scientific fields are now clearly inter-dependent No longer such a thing as “disciplinary science” Technology is now driving science, more than the

reverse Significant increases in new term not likely
