- The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded a $486,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) to The Johns Hopkins University to develop a Genomic Medicine Master of Science (M.S.) degree program. The program will provide advanced training to prepare health professionals and trainees with the knowledge and skills required to manipulate, annotate, and interpret human genome data, as well as a foundation for pursuing genomics research. The project leverages the...
- The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded a $1,711,422 Project Grant (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) to the New York Genome Center, Inc. (NYGC) on September 23, 2024. The goal of this project is to develop a suite of privacy-preserving tools for transcriptomic data analysis, including methods for quantifying bulk and single-cell gene expression, as well as performing expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping on encrypted genotypes. This will enable large-scale...
- The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded a $162,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to Prairie View A&M University (PVAMU) to develop an undergraduate certificate program in Computational Genomics and Biomedical Data Science. The program aims to provide students at PVAMU with foundational knowledge and skills in computational genomics, biomedical data science, biostatistics/biomathematics, and bioinformatics to prepare them for...
- The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), under the Federal Grant Program for Human Genome Research (CFDA 93.172), awarded a $397,599 Project Grant to Xgenomes Corp. in Cambridge, MA. The grant supports the development of a novel epigenetic analysis method that can directly detect DNA methylation patterns across the genome with high accuracy, overcoming limitations of current sequencing techniques. The project aims to create advanced molecular analysis platforms that leverage machine...
- The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded a $1,050,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Human Genome Research program (CFDA 93.172) to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) to support three biennial conferences of the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) Research Program between 2026 and 2030. The conferences aim to expand the reach of ELSI research to new generations, communities, and disciplines, and utilize innovative horizon scanning methods...
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded a $484,764 Cooperative Agreement to El Paso Community College (EPCC) under the Human Genome Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.172). The award will fund the development and implementation of three curriculum modules on computational genomics and cloud computing to be integrated into 8 biology, anatomy and physiology, and microbiology courses per semester at EPCC. The goal is to expose EPCC's diverse student body, which includes a large population of first-generation and non-traditional students, to these emerging fields. The project will also provide faculty training to successfully implement the new curriculum. EPCC plans to disseminate the modules to other community colleges in the U.S. The project period runs from Sep 1, 2025 to Aug 31, 2028.
