I assume if they met the letter of the law with two year R21 instead of 4 year R01 than yes, more grants could be funded in FY25.

I dunno if DK publishes funding strategy but a PO giving you the unofficial payline is even less reliable, ie a conservative estimate.
Now maybe the ICs have gamed out every scenario. And you are hearing the straight dope. It’s possible. My NIAAA focused peeps were hearing “zero new grants” many weeks ago. They are mostly correct but I think I saw 1 new R01 come out recently.
NIAAA is just sad. Only NINR looks worse.
Two! Since 8/1.
Out of….five for FY2025. For reference, NIAAA funded 64 new R01 in FY2024. Big sad.
