`nihr_awards_by_programme`

Pack: nihr · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nihr/mcp

Break UK NIHR funding down by programme or funding stream: award counts, total value in GBP, mean award size and the date range of awards in each. Called with no arguments it lists every NIHR programme that actually exists with its totals, which is the way to discover valid programme names before filtering elsewhere. Answers “which NIHR programme spends the most”, “how many awards has the Health Technology Assessment programme made”, and “what NIHR fellowship schemes exist and how big are they”.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`group_by`	string	no	Field to aggregate on (default “programme”). “funding_stream” is the finer-grained scheme name; “programme_type” splits Research from Career Development.
`filter`	string	no	Only include groups whose name contains this case-insensitive substring, e.g. “Fellowship”, “Public Health”, “Global”.
`project_status`	string	no	Restrict the aggregation to one status: Active, Complete, Contracted or Discontinued.
`start_from`	string	no	Only aggregate awards starting on or after this date, YYYY-MM-DD.
`sort_by`	string	no	Ordering of the groups (default total_desc, biggest spend first).
`limit`	number	no	Max groups to return, 1-${MAX_LIMIT} (default 30).
