UC research expenditures increased about $2.2 billion in inflation-adjusted dollars between 1996-97 and 2008-09, an increase of about 83 percent during that period.
Much of this increase was due to the doubling of the National Institutes of Health budget that occurred between 1998-99 and 2002-03. Private support for research has also doubled over the last 10 years.

Figures are in thousands of inflation-adjusted 2008-09 dollars.
Data include direct and indirect costs (both reimbursed and unreimbursed). Direct research expenditures go directly to the principal investigator in support of a specific research project; indirect research expenditures provide additional support to the University for the research infrastructure, such as maintaining buildings and research space, providing for technological infrastructure, libraries, utility costs, etc.
