Project Abstract

During suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV-1 persists in long-lived resting memory CD4+ T cells of children and young adults with perinatal HIV-1 as both intact and defective proviral genomes. The intact, replication-competent proviruses contribute to the latent reservoir and are a lifelon...

Project Abstract

SUMMARY As an essential amino acid, lysine is necessary for life. Accordingly, when exposed to a lysine-deficient diet, animals will seek out dietary lysine1. However, when animals are lysine-replete, lysine administration is a powerful inhibitor of overall food intake2. Despite this fine-tuned regu...

Project Abstract

Abstract. SHIV-infected rhesus macaques (RMs) develop HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) via Env-Ab coevolutionary pathways that recapitulate events in HIV-1 infected humans (Science 371:eabd2638, 2021).

Project Abstract

Over 40% of adults are obese in the US. Although reducing caloric intake and/or increasing physical activity can lead to weight loss in the short to medium term in some people, they lose efficacy in the long term. Bariatric surgeries are currently the most durable and effective treatment for obesity...

Project Abstract

Abstract. HIV-1 replicates in host cells to produce new virions by two alternative routes. As free virus, HIV-1 buds from infected cells and circulates in the host until encountering a new permissive target cell. In addition, HIV-1 can efficiently spread by direct transmission from infected to uninf...

Project Abstract

Docetaxel is the first-line chemotherapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (PCa), the major cause of PCa mortality.

Project Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease that often emerges during childhood due to T cell- mediated destruction of insulin-producing  cells in the pancreas. Over the last 30 years, the incidence of T1D has increased by 3-4%, a rapid change that cannot be explained by g...

Project Abstract

Abstract HIV infection impacts over 37 million individuals, with over 2/3 of these patients receiving antiretroviral therapies (ART). ART is sustained for a patient’s life and can lead to the emergence of drug-resistant HIV-1. To combat drug-resistance, an improved and diverse set of antiretrovirals...

How to Use PI Funding Data for Career Decisions

Finding the right principal investigator is one of the most important decisions in an academic career. Whether you are a postdoc looking for a mentor, a graduate student choosing a rotation lab, or a collaborator seeking a co-PI, NIH funding data provides objective signals about which investigators have active research programs and resources to support new team members.

A PI with a recently awarded R01 or equivalent grant is more likely to have budget for new personnel than one whose funding ended two years ago. The activity code tells you the type of grant: R01 and R35 awards typically support multiple lab members, while K-series awards are individual career development grants that may not fund additional positions. Understanding these distinctions helps you interpret search results accurately.

Look beyond the dollar amount. A $500,000 per year R01 at a high-cost institution may support fewer positions than a $300,000 award at a university with lower overhead rates. The project abstract and public health relevance statement reveal whether the PI's research direction aligns with your interests and expertise.

Understanding PI Grant Portfolios

A PI's grant portfolio reveals more than individual awards. Investigators with multiple active grants often run larger labs with more diverse projects, which can mean more opportunities for trainees. However, a PI with a single well-funded grant may offer more focused mentorship and a clearer path to publications.

Multi-PI grants (those with more than one principal investigator listed) indicate collaborative research and may involve trainees from multiple institutions. These can be excellent opportunities for interdisciplinary training but may also mean split attention from any single mentor.

Pay attention to the timing of awards. A PI who just received a new five-year R01 is in a different position than one whose grant ends next year. New awards often correspond to lab expansion and active recruiting, making them ideal targets for job seekers. The start and end dates shown in each result help you assess this timing.

Best Practices for Contacting Funded PIs

Once you identify a promising PI through this tool, the next step is outreach. NIH public records do not include email addresses, but you can usually find contact information through the PI's institutional profile page, lab website, or recent publications. Google Scholar, PubMed, and the PI's department website are reliable starting points.

When reaching out, reference the specific grant that caught your attention. Mentioning the project title and explaining how your skills relate to the funded work shows that you have done your homework. Keep your initial message concise: introduce yourself, explain your interest, attach your CV, and ask whether they anticipate openings.

Timing matters. Contacting a PI within the first year of a new award is ideal, as this is when they are most likely to be recruiting. If you find multiple promising PIs in the same field, prioritize those with the most recent award notices and activity codes that support trainee positions such as R01, U01, or P-series grants.

Frequently Asked Questions About PI Search

What does the opportunity score mean?

The opportunity score is a heuristic that combines award recency, funding amount, activity code type, and project characteristics to estimate how actionable a result might be for job seekers or collaborators. Higher scores suggest stronger signals, but always verify by reading the abstract and checking the PI's current lab page.

Why can't I find a PI I know has funding?

Name variations are the most common cause. Try searching with just the last name, or use different formats like "Smith, John" versus "John Smith." Some PIs also publish under different name variations or may have awards under a previous institutional affiliation.

Does this tool show all NIH-funded PIs?

The tool searches NIH RePORTER data for the keyword and year range you specify. It returns PIs whose funded projects match your search terms. PIs with grants in unrelated areas or whose projects use different terminology will not appear in keyword-filtered results.

What is the difference between "Likely hiring" and "Training-friendly" filters?

"Likely hiring" flags PIs with large new awards or activity codes typically associated with lab expansion. "Training-friendly" identifies awards that include training components or are at institutions known for postdoctoral programs. Both are heuristic filters to help prioritize your outreach.

How to use this well

Start broad, then narrow. Search a field first, then refine by timeframe once you understand who is currently active.

After you find a promising PI, cross-check them in Check PI Funding and review their institution, mechanism type, and project abstracts before reaching out.

What a match means

A result means the keyword appears relevant to the funded project data we searched. It does not guarantee the PI is hiring or that the grant is still active.

Use the abstract, award year, mechanism, and organization context to decide whether the record is strategically relevant.

Data limits

NIH records can lag, institutional names can vary, and some investigators publish or file awards under multiple name formats.
