* Non-UVM NIH grants experienced a boom from 2006 to 2016 but are now back to near-zero levels.
*==Ranking Vermont's VC== I pulled data from the [US Startup City Ranking]] project, which also provides state rankings, and draws data from [[VCDB20]] to make some graphs showing Vermont's VC over time. Vermont's VC is so small that it is dwarfed by year-to-year national variation. So, as much as we might want Vermont to be something, it is currently very much a rounding error. It's state rank has mostly oscillated between 35 and 40 and the five-year moving average suggests that its most recent peak was 10 years ago.[[File:VermontPercentOFUSTotal1980to2020.PNG |left|500px]] [[File:VermontVCRanking1980to2020.png|right|500px]]
