It is of great significance to analyze the configuration of programs funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China using funding data in the field of preventive medicine from 2007 to 2021. The analysis mainly focused on the funding status of the program, funding amount, funded institutions and personnel. A total of 5 349 programs in the discipline of preventive medicine were funded over the last 15 years. The funding amount in this discipline accounted for a relatively low proportion in the total funding amount of the Department of Medical Sciences and this proportion also showed a decreasing trend. Non-infectious disease epidemiology, human nutrition, and health toxicology were the top three subdisciplines of all funded programs in preventive medicine. The proportion of programs led by young scholars was gradually rising over the years, and young scholars were playing an increasingly influential role in scientific research. The funding status among each subdiscipline and institution also varied. The results of this study reflected the thriving of preventive medicine. Meanwhile, some problems and dilemmas were also revealed in its current development. Hopefully, this study could provide valuable information for institutions and preventive medicine researchers to apply for National Natural Science Foundation, and promote the long-term development of preventive medicine in the future.分析国家自然科学基金预防医学领域各类型项目的资助情况具有重要意义。本研究汇总2007—2021年国家自然科学基金预防医学领域各类型项目的资助数据，主要针对各类型项目立项数、资助金额、受资助依托单位情况以及受资助人员情况等进行系统分析。15年间预防医学学科共计资助各类型项目5 349项，资助金额占医学科学部资助总金额比例较低，且有占比下降的趋势。非传染病流行病学、人类营养和卫生毒理是获得资助项目数排前3位的分支学科。青年科研人员近年来主持的项目占比逐渐增加，在科学研究中发挥的作用越来越大。各分支学科、各申报单位的情况也有较大差别。以上结果反映出预防医学学科目前的蓬勃发展态势，同时也暴露出当前预防医学学科基础研究中存在的问题，可为各研究单位、预防医学科技工作者未来申报国家自然科学基金项目提供参考，促进预防医学学科的长远发展。.

We analyzed the data of application and funding projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) during 2010-2016 in the field of burns and plastic surgery and summarized the NSFC funding pattern, the research hotspots, and weaknesses in this field. The NSFC has funded 460 projects in the field of burns and plastic surgery, with total funding of RMB 227.96 million. The scientific issues involved in the funding projects include orthotherapy against malformations, wound repair, basic research of burns, skin grafting, scars prevention, and regeneration of hair follicle and sweat glands. The research techniques involved in the funding projects are diversified. NSFC plays an important role in the scientific research and talents training in the field of burns and plastic surgery.
