Objective To analyze the projects on the infectious disease epidemiology sponsored by the National Natural Sci?ence Foundation of China(NSFC),explore the hotspot and development trend,and offer a reference for researchers in this field. Methods Based on the NSFC database,the projects on the infectious disease epidemiology(H2609)sponsored from 1987 to 2014 were analyzed. The changes of fund numbers,amounts and research fields were described. Results During the study period,NSFC sponsored 373 projects,including 228 general projects(61.1%),78 youth projects(20.9%)and 67 other projects(18.0%). The average amount of the grant was 358.2 thousand Yuan(20 thousand?8 million). The main sponsored re?search fields were mechanisms of pathogen and immunity(36.2%)and population?based epidemiological studies(33.0%). The top three diseases were hepatitis,HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis. Conclusion The amount of funding on researches of infectious disease epidemiology has increased continuously,which has played an important role in training scientific talents in the field of prevention and control of infectious diseases.
