MUM financials show it gets between $2-$4 million each year in gov't grants, though not all of this is necessarily for research. Don't know how much is for the long term hypertension research which is top notch. It's the graduate students working with faculty on their dissertations that are generally bogus due to the pressure to come up with positive findings or else no degree. Not sure if any of this type of research is going on anymore as the graduate science programs are pretty much gone now I think.
