Principal Investigators Association

The Principal Investigators Association (PIA) is an independent organization created for professionals just like you! Our mission is to create a sharing network and community among scientists in all fields of research. Studies reveal that PIs must spend up to half of each day carrying out the many managerial and administrative duties they have as a result of being research leaders. These include such responsibilities as garnering financial support, supervising lab staff, mentoring graduate and postgraduate students, teaching, writing papers, serving on committees, etc.
