National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding, and it consistently is ranked among the top four pediatric medical school programs in the country by

Cincinnati Children's is a national leader in clinical and basic science research. In fiscal year 2004, we had more than 400 faculty members and secured more than $80 million in direct NIH funding, leading to extramural funding of $120 million and a total research budget of more than $250 million per year. The
