AN analyt in NIH grant

Question

[joerodger2017]

It may not be directly relevant question for the forum but I think it will get good feedback here. Can a any analyst be listed as Co investigator on NIH grants? I am sure some of us may have knowledge about this. Please dont close the question

NIH defines the roles of "senior key personnel" and "co-investigator", which is what you are looking for? Multiple principal investigator responsibilities are defined on this page. There is a practical summary of relevant roles here (UTMB page).

You can be a co-investigator/senior key personnel, but it may depend on the PI on the grant.

Sounds like there is some disagreement about your role, which is why you are asking this question?

Regarding the roles, your employer (institution, company, etc) may establish who can submit a grant proposa under that employer's name, and may even indicate what roles they can have (normally 'key personnel' isn't a problem, but PI or co-PI may be). It's worth checking in with them to make sure.
