Moreover, each type of grant program has its own distinct eligibility requirements. For example, applicants can find eligibility information in section III of each NIH funding opportunity announcement (FOA). While the PI conceives and writes the application, NIH recognizes the applicant institution as the recipient for most grant types. In general, domestic or foreigh, public or private, non-profit or for-profit organizations are eligible to receive NIH grants though NIH may limit eligibility for certain types of programs. NSF eligibility information notes that Principal Investigators (PI & co-PIs) must have a tenured, tenure-track, or non-tenure track faculty position and specifies that their institution has qualified them to serve as PI or co-PI. Post doctoral researchers are not allowed to serve as PI or co-PI but they may serve as other personnel.
