Research Scientist donations in the 2012 FEC cycle
$333,733 is the harvested Research Scientist total inside FEC cycle 2012, from 572 itemized individual contributions and 219 donor keys. FEC.gov stores the occupation as typed: RESEARCH SCIENTIST. All-cycle Research Scientist money in this harvest is $5,295,266, so 2012 is 6.3% of the title bucket. Neighboring wording — Scientist, Research Associate, and Principal Scientist — sits in other rows if the characters differ.
Key figures
- Research Scientist × 2012 = $333,733 (572 lines, 219 keys).
- Occupation book $5,295,266; other cycles $4,961,533.
- Exact string RESEARCH SCIENTIST; nearby titles are other keys.
- FEC individual receipts, not committee PAC spending.
- No partisan split in this packet.
The Research Scientist and 2012 join
The intersection is $333,733 for Research Scientist in 2012. Occupation matching is exact on RESEARCH SCIENTIST. Cycle matching is the FEC two-year tag 2012. Scientist, Research Associate, and Principal Scientist are not added into $333,733. Recoding the string into an NIH grant roster, a university payroll extract, or a lab-census file would invent a crosswalk the packet does not contain.

No party share, no top committee, and no employer list appear in the facts. $333,733 is an occupation-cycle sum of itemized individual receipts. Naming a committee or a donor here would be invention. Use the parent hubs for those cuts if they exist there.
What Research Scientist does not mean on this page
The occupation total $5,295,266 is a sum over cycles, not a 2012 figure. $333,733 is the 2012 chapter. RESEARCH SCIENTIST is the typed title. Field of science is unpublished. Employer type is unpublished. Combining neighboring strings without naming each source total mixes keys.
FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered. If a researcher needs a license or NAICS crosswalk, they start from the raw string RESEARCH SCIENTIST, not from a recode invented here.
Volume: 572 lines, 219 identities
572 itemized contributions and 219 unique donors sit behind $333,733. Average gift size is about $583; average dollars per donor about $1,524; lines per donor about 2.6. Averages hide skew.
Open the occupation and cycle hubs for related tables; do not invent names here. 572 contributions remaining larger than 219 donors is the expected pattern when identities give more than once. Skew is unpublished because no median is in the facts.
2012 as a slice of $5,295,266
$5,295,266 is the all-cycle total stored for RESEARCH SCIENTIST. Subtract $333,733 and $4,961,533 remains in other cycles (93.7%). 2012 therefore accounts for about 6.3% of the grouping. That percentage is arithmetic on two packet facts, not a ranking against other occupations.
The 2012 hub is the place to see every other occupation string that year. This page keeps the Research Scientist filter on. Research Scientist as typed can appear in licensing or contracting databases under similar names. Those tables are not this $333,733.
What $333,733 excludes
$333,733 is individual contributions tagged Research Scientist in 2012. Association committee filings file as committees. See Research Scientist donations or the 2012 election cycle hub for committee names if those tables publish them. They are not in this packet.
Laboratory, academic, and industry research titles collapse into one string here. The join does not split wet-lab from computational work. Cite RESEARCH SCIENTIST as the form text. Committee independent expenditures and PAC operating expenditures are other FEC form classes. They are not folded into 572 individual lines.
How to quote $333,733
Quote $333,733 as Research Scientist itemized individual receipts in FEC cycle 2012, from 572 contributions and 219 donors. Quote $5,295,266 only as the occupation total across harvested cycles. Quote 6.3% only as $333,733 divided by $5,295,266.
Donor names are not in the facts and are not supplied here. 219 is a count of keys. 572 is a count of lines. Research Scientist in 2012 is $333,733.
Laboratory, academic, and industry research titles collapse into one string here. The join does not split wet-lab from computational work. Cite RESEARCH SCIENTIST as the form text. The packet facts remain $333,733, 572 contributions, 219 donors, occupation total $5,295,266, cycle 2012. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. Occupation labels are filer-entered. This overlay names both join sides in the title and H1: Research Scientist and 2012.
Questions
- What is the Research Scientist total inside the 2012 cycle?
- $333,733 in itemized individual contributions, across 572 lines and 219 donor keys. The Research Scientist occupation book is $5,295,266, so 2012 is 6.3%. Remainder $4,961,533 sits in other cycles. Source: FEC.gov.
- Is Research Scientist the same as neighboring job titles?
- No. This cell is the exact string RESEARCH SCIENTIST. Scientist, Research Associate, and Principal Scientist are separate occupation keys if those words appear. Combining them without naming each total mixes FEC groupings. Research Scientist in 2012 remains $333,733.
- Do these Research Scientist gifts fund federal awards?
- No. $333,733 is FEC individual receipts for Research Scientist in 2012. USAspending obligations are a different dataset. The join does not claim a payment trail. 572 contributions and 219 donors are FEC contributor statistics, not award recipients.
- How many Research Scientist donors are in the 2012 packet?
- 219 unique donor keys and 572 itemized contributions. Names are not published in this packet and are not invented. Means from those counts are not medians. The dollar total is $333,733.
