Today we applied a fix to the NIH grants data relating to frozen funding. Previously, a bug resulted in us incorrectly filtering out some candidates to be considered “frozen”. With this change, 74 new frozen (or possibly unfrozen, or unfrozen) grants are included in the data. It also removes 16 grants that had been preiously marked as frozen at some point. Most of these removals are correct (i.e. the grant never should have been included with that status). A few may be erroneous and we will look into those.
There may still be issues with the status of NIH grants that have complicated histories (e.g. frozen, terminated, reinstated, then unfrozen!) that we will continue to investigate. If you spot any mistakes or inconsistencies in our data, please let us know by email.
