President Bush yesterday (February 7) sent to Congress a $28.8 billion budget request for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in fiscal year (FY) 2006, a virtually flat 0.7% increase of $196 million over the current year's funding and far below the projected biomedical inflation rate of 3.5%. If enacted, it would be the first time since 1964 that NIH received an annual increase of less than 1%.
