Genomic Community Resources (U24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The purpose of this initiative is to facilitate genomic research and to disseminate its products to the broader biomedical research community. NHGRI supports both new and existing genomic resources of demonstrated broad value to the research community. Awards under this FOA will support the development and distribution of genomic resources that will be valuable for both basic and clinical genomics research. Such resources include, but are not limited to, those that support: Genomic informatics toolsets, such as biomedical ontologies and analysis toolsets. Comprehensive identification and collections of genomic features, such as functional genomic elements and genetic assay results. Genomic community building efforts, such as standards development. Sample repositories for genomic studies, such as cell line repositories for high-value samples.
