This $181,564 National Science Foundation award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will establish a marine genomics center at the University of Washington's Friday Harbor Laboratories. The center will remodel an underutilized laboratory building equipped with seawater systems into a wet lab and dry procedure space containing tools for molecular genomics research. This includes equipment for nanopore sequencing, amplification, purification and quality assurance. The new laboratory will attract new researchers and expand opportunities for established researchers and students at FHL. It will also serve as a training center for workshops of 15-20 participants. The center will contribute to research understanding the relationship between organismal genomes and phenotypes. The award was effective October 1, 2022 for a two-year period concluding September 30, 2024.
