- What it does
- This program supports projects, conferences, and workshops that advance the evolving field of research integrity and produce tangible outcomes related to ensuring research integrity and compliance with 42 C.F.R. Part 93. Projects must be designed to support efforts to ensure the integrity and reliability of PHS-funded research through the research, creation, and implementation of innovative practical approaches/tools/resources that improve practices related to research integrity, the responsible conduct of research, and/or compliance with 42 C.F.R. Part 93. Innovative approaches, tools, and/or resources developed through this funding opportunity should be disseminated and made freely available for use by the PHS-funded research community. Conferences or workshops must be designed to provide a forum for discussion and produce tangible outcomes related to at least one of the following themes: 1) fostering an environment that promotes research integrity and the responsible conduct of research; 2) prevention of research misconduct; 3) effective handling of research misconduct allegations; or, 4) other designated topics linked to research integrity and compliance with 42 C.F.R. Part 93. The proposed conferences or workshops should be designed to produce measurable outcomes, such as demonstrated retention of knowledge, sharing of knowledge gained, and/or change in practice and are expected to disseminate materials and key knowledge resulting from the conference/workshop.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
