Notes: N/A = data for 2015-2016 are incomplete or not available. As a result, the total number of applicants should be higher than that indicated in the table; BUILD application was a joint effort with MARC U*STAR and RISE starting in 2016-2017; applicants may have been reviewed and accepted for the other NIH programs.
