This grant supports early-stage projects to develop innovative experimental and computational tools for comprehensive RNA analysis, aiming to overcome current limitations and advance research on RNA’s roles in health and disease.
This grant will fund the development, testing, and distribution of RNA molecular reference standards to improve benchmarking, reproducibility, and comparison of RNA research technologies.
The RNomics Outreach and Coordination (ROC) Center will manage data, coordinate activities, and support outreach and training for a consortium advancing RNA research technologies and resources.
NIH funds testing centers to evaluate the safety and efficacy of somatic cell genome editing for human disease therapies using preclinical models; clinical trials are not allowed.
NHGRI will fund pilot studies using innovative molecular technologies, beyond standard DNA sequencing, to identify genes or variants causing rare genetic disorders, with applications opening in 2026.
