  • 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
