Grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding

Hi

Dr. Campbell has more than seventy grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding and more
than 300 research papers on his resume.


I know what peer-review is and what grants are, but somehow I'm not sure what the author wanted to say in the sentence above?

He and his colleagues have worked under grants for a total of 70 years. For instance, if he and 2 research assistants each had grants and worked together for one year on a research project, that would be 3 grant-years. )
