Figure 1 Relative funding levels of most NIDDK extramural research categories have remained fairly stable since fiscal 2003. These data were presented to the NIDDK's Advisory Council in May 2012 in the context of NIDDK's core values. The NIDDK core values emphasize maintaining a strong investigator-initiated R01 program, preserving a stable pool of talented new investigators, supporting key clinical studies and trials (support is generally represented in the Initiatives and Contracts categories), and continuing strong support of training and career development programs. Figures 9–12 illustrate other examples of how NIDDK's portfolio has reflected NIDDK Core values over time.
