FY2026 NIH awards · Principal investigators
Pediatrics at Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor-Ucla Medical Center
Torrance, CA
- NIH names only the principal investigators on an award, so this page lists only them. The department is the award's: it is where ScienceDex counts the award, not a list of the department's members.
- 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 Pediatrics row of the Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor-Ucla Medical Center page.
