Description
This opportunity supports the ongoing operation, maintenance, and dissemination of unique bioinformatics resources that are critical to the research community using animal models to study embryonic developmental processes. The program aims to ensure that these resources remain available, are enhanced in line with community needs, and are interoperable with other NIH bioinformatics resources. Activities may include resource development, user training, data curation, and broad dissemination.
The program is administered by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and uses the P41 Biotechnology Resource Grant mechanism. The focus is on resources that are mature, widely used, and of demonstrable value to the developmental biology community, particularly those supporting research into the biological basis of development and congenital anomalies.
