  • Select a department to see the principal investigators on its awards. A rank opens that department's ranking.
  • NIH gives hospital awards no department code. Each one counts under its contact PI's own department, from their PubMed affiliations. When no affiliation names a department, the department comes from the award's topic and is marked topic-inferred. How departments are assigned
  • Department rankings count Seattle Children's Hospital's awards toward University of Washington, so ranks labeled University of Washington are that school's ranks. Each department ranking can also list hospitals and health systems separately.
