Overview

Returns grouped aggregate statistics over the research grants dataset. Use this to answer questions like “how much has NSERC awarded to Ontario institutions?” or “what are the top programs by total funding?” Accepts the same filter parameters as Research Grants, so you can scope statistics to any subset of the data before grouping.
