Institution rankings
133 institutions ranked by Internal Medicine department funding in FY2026.
Awards at affiliated teaching hospitals count toward their medical school, for example Massachusetts General Hospital toward Harvard Medical School. How grouping works
NIH gives hospital awards no department code. Each one counts under its contact PI's own department, from their PubMed affiliations, or under a department inferred from the award's topic when no affiliation names one.
