Harvard Medical School, of 82 · Ranking
  • 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 Neurology row of the Massachusetts General Hospital page, including 1 R&D contract, which department rankings leave out. Department rankings count Massachusetts General Hospital's awards toward Harvard Medical School. It is part of Mass General Brigham's Neurology.
