Figure A1.3 – Breakdown of awards by research activity

Most awards were coded using the HRCS system (http://www.hrcsonline.net/) – and these codes were aggregated into ‘cause’, ‘cure’ and ‘care’.

Type of research activity	Total Number of Awards
Cause	3,118
Underpinning	725
Aetiology	2,393
Cure	2,598
Detection and Diagnosis	835
Treatment Development	1,063
Treatment Evaluation	700
Care	646
Prevention	148
Disease Management	379
Health Services	119
Grand Total	6,362

Please note that the total number of awards here equals more than the total in the report (5287). This is because some awards can be categorised as more than one code (e.g. coded as both Underpinning and Prevention).
