This federal Project Grant award, valued at $2,442,535.00 and awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports research to assess the long-term impacts and value of implementing newborn genomic sequencing. The primary objectives are to: 1) conduct key-informant interviews to understand clinician, health system, and newborn screening program needs and concerns...
This Project Grant award from the National Human Genome Research Institute (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) will provide $415,712 to Research Triangle Institute (RTI International) to study how public health newborn screening programs should determine which genes to include in sequencing panels. The key objectives are to: Appraise and contrast the approaches and criteria used by experts conducting newborn sequencing studies to determine which genes to screen, synthesizing decision...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to improve methods for identifying genetic contributors to rare diseases, particularly neurodevelopmental disorders in children. The $1,802,392 award to the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology will fund the sequencing of 900 genomes using Pacific Biosciences' "HiFi" long-read DNA sequencing...
This Project Grant award from the National Human Genome Research Institute (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) is focused on generating strategies and resources to facilitate informed decision-making for pregnant patients regarding prenatal genetic screening and diagnostic tests (PS&D). The $831,046 award, effective September 18, 2024 through August 31, 2025, aims to: Determine how changes in PS&D and post-diagnosis options affect the resources and support patients need for informed...
This $718,630 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) supports the development and evaluation of an enhanced digital educational chatbot, called iPrenatal+, for prenatal genetic counseling. The project aims to utilize human-centered design to transform an existing chatbot (iPrenatal) into an enhanced version (iPrenatal+) that provides prenatal genetic counseling in both English...
This $3,422,481 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) will support a comprehensive genomic research program at Children's Mercy Hospital to characterize novel causes of unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL).
