Abstract
The interactive database and classification system for pain, nausea, and dyspnea research funded by the NIH reported on in this article represents an objective and verifiable resource for health policy makers and others interested in NIH funding decisions. The high inter-rater reliability achieved attests to the objectivity of the classification method. Initial analyses demonstrate that these data can usefully track funding patterns by NIH institutes and reveal underfunded areas of research.
