External studies have shown:
-NIH funding directly or indirectly supported the development of ALL new treatments that were FDA approved between 2010-2020
-the return on NIH investment is estimated at 25-40% annually given the improvement in productivity from a healthier workforce

Nearly every medicine we benefit from started with NIH-funded research. Early discovery work starts in academia.
Immunotherapies?
Gene therapy for rare diseases?
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s medicines?
Vaccines?
Novel cancer treatments?
Psychiatric medicines?
You betcha.
