This grant funds sites to analyze kidney biopsy tissue and collaborate on creating a Kidney Tissue Atlas to better understand and treat acute and chronic kidney diseases.
Funder: National Institutes of Health
Due Dates: July 10, 2026 (Full application deadline)
Funding Amounts: Up to $1,500,000 per award; estimated total program funding $6,000,000; 2 expected awards
Summary: Supports research sites using advanced analytic pipelines to interrogate human kidney biopsy tissue and discover new disease pathways for precision clinical trials.
Key Information: Non-U.S. organizations and foreign components are not eligible.
This opportunity funds Tissue Interrogation Sites (TIS) within the Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP), supporting research teams that use highly integrated, multi-modal analytic pipelines to interrogate human kidney biopsy tissue. The goal is to discover and define new disease pathways and subgroups, thereby enabling precision clinical trials and advancing kidney disease research. All KPMP personnel are expected to actively participate in collaborative scientific discovery and promote open science.
