Foreword
I
am pleased to release the 1996 Contract and Grant Awards Report, which lists
contract and grant (C&G) awards received by the University of New Mexico
during fiscal year 1996 (i.e. July 1, 1995 - June 30, 1996), FY96. These awards
represent new funds that were acquired during FY96 by the main campus and branch
campuses, and the Health Sciences Center (HSC). The HSC includes the School
of Medicine, College of Nursing and College of Pharmacy.
The C&G awards received for FY96 total $164.3M, of which $113.7M is attributed to the main campus and branch campuses and $50.7M to the Health Sciences. A summary table includes some statistics of interest in Tables 1a through 1d. Sponsored awards assist in providing resources that are necessary to improve the quality of research and teaching on our campus as well as enhance the opportunities for our students to be trained in state-of-the-art laboratories in a variety of disciplines. During FY96, $6.3M was paid to 503 graduate students for research assistantships.
Please join me in thanking our dedicated faculty, staff and students involved in the research, public service and instruction efforts at UNM. Their efforts and successes contribute to UNM's visibility at the national and international levels, as well as assist in the economic growth of the State of New Mexico and the region. Thanks are also due to a number of individuals who have helped in preparing this report. In particular, I would like to acknowledge the efforts of Denise Wallen, Ann Powell and Valerie Roybal of the Office of Research Services, and Gulbransen and Marcia Truax of the Health Sciences Center.
I welcome your comments and questions with respect to this annual report and other issues related to research activities at UNM.
