  • NIH gives hospital awards no department code. Each 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. Each award below says which. How departments are assigned
  • These are the awards in the Internal Medicine row of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center page. It is part of Cedars-Sinai Health System's Internal Medicine.
