  • Active NIH funding outpacing published output

    Moderately supported

    Child and Adolescent Development has substantial active NIH investment relative to the volume of recent publications. This pattern typically means funded work is still in progress, so the near-term literature is thin and early contributions can land before the field consolidates.

    Evidence

    5071 active NIH projects totalling $80,746,001 against only 13,373 recent PubMed records — about 2.6 publications per funded project.

    Possible dissertation angle

    Position a project to complement in-flight funded work: replicate an early finding, build the measurement tool that the funded studies will need, or synthesize what has been published so far.
