DESCRIPTION:We introduce new developments in documenting the historical fun
 ding activities of the German Research Foundation (DFG). The starting poin
 t is [GEPRIS Historisch](https://gepris-historisch.dfg.de/)\, a database r
 eleased in 2020 for the DFG’s centenary that provides access to more tha
 n 50\,000 research projects from around 13\,000 scientists between 1920 an
 d 1945. We discuss how this material can be enriched by linking it with ex
 ternal data sources\, focusing on the use of  PIDs. The dataset was publis
 hed in 2025 on [Zenodo as a scientific analysis dataset](https://zenodo.or
 g/records/14849869)\, enabling new forms of historical research.\n\nWe out
 line plans to extend the documentation of DFG funding history by closing t
 he gap between 1945 and the start of the project database [GEPRIS](https:/
 /gepris.dfg.de/) in 1999. We also present methodological approaches for la
 rge-scale PID assignment that enable the systematic linking of researchers
 .
