This is a forecasted opportunity; dates and details may change.

--- ## Description The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the NIH, is launching an initiative to bridge the gap between genomic technology development and widespread community adoption. This program funds the creation and dissemination of comprehensive toolkits that enable broader implementation of innovative genomic methods. Toolkits may include custom reagents, hardware, annotated protocols, computational pipelines, and, where appropriate, hands-on training and workshops. The goal is to facilitate independent validation, gather user feedback, and accelerate the maturation and adoption of new genomic technologies. --- ## Due Dates - Estimated application due date: June 24, 2026 *All dates are projected based on the annual cycle; check the program page for updates.* --- ## Funding Amount - Maximum award per project: $50,000 - Expected number of awards: Approximately 15 - No cost sharing or matching required --- ## Eligibility Eligible applicants include: - State, county, city, or township governments - Special district governments - Independent school districts - Public and state-controlled institutions of higher education - Private institutions of higher education - Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized and other) - Public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities - Nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education) - For-profit organizations (including small businesses) - U.S. Territory or Possession - Faith-based or community-based organizations - Regional organizations - Eligible agencies of the Federal Government - Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions) - Others as specified in the program announcement --- ## Application Process - This opportunity is currently forecasted; the official Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will be released at a later date. - Application instructions and required materials will be provided via [Grants.gov](https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/360641) once the opportunity is posted. - Prepare to submit a detailed proposal describing the toolkit, dissemination plan, and training or validation components. --- ## Additional Information - The initiative emphasizes lowering barriers to technology adoption and fostering community engagement. - Feedback from toolkit users is expected to inform further technology development. - Hands-on training and workshops are encouraged where relevant. - Stay updated on the official release and any changes to eligibility or requirements. --- ## External Links - [NIH Home Page](https://www.nih.gov/) - [Opportunity Listing on Grants.gov](https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/360641) --- ## Contact Information | Name | Email | Phone | |-----------|-----------------------------|---------------| | Ian Nova | [ian.nova@nih.gov](mailto:ian.nova@nih.gov) | 240-987-2885 |
