This is a $1,593,000 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310). The grant was awarded on September 1, 2023 to The Children's Hospital Corporation, doing business as Boston Children's Hospital, a non-profit pediatric teaching hospital and research center. The funding supports a 3-year research project to "DEFINING THE UNIVERSAL GENOMIC LANGUAGE OF HALLMARKS IN TUMOR...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $445,000.00 to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to develop technologies for delineating haplotype-resolved, full-length transcriptomes in bulk tissues and single cells. The project aims to characterize transcript isoforms of haploinsufficient genes to discover novel therapeutic targets, as well as establish a program for...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $489,500.00 to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) to conduct research on overcoming technical obstacles in understanding the assembly and regulation of B cell antigen receptors (BCRs). The research aims to elucidate the structural details of BCR assembly and...
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), under the Human Genome Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.172), awarded a $130,680 Project Grant to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) for the period of July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027. The grant will fund the development of robust computational technologies for single-cell functional genomics, enabling the comprehensive identification of genetic variants (SNPs) that regulate tissue niches...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.855), provides $489,500 to support structural studies of the full-length nucleocapsid (N) protein of SARS-CoV-2. The goal is to determine the high-resolution structure of the full-length N protein in complex with the viral RNA using cryogenic electron microscopy. This research aims to advance the understanding of the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Research Infrastructure Programs (CFDA 93.351) provides $222,500.00 to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) from May 15, 2025 to March 31, 2027. The funding supports the development of a modular system for mouse CRISPR genome and epigenome editing, including the creation of mouse lines that express CRISPR-interference/activation (CRISPR-I/A) and base/prime editing...
This federal Project Grant award of $126,830 from the National Human Genome Research Institute (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) supports research to develop a somatic mutation-resolved lineage tracing system. The project aims to reconstruct single-cell genealogical trees and detect associated somatic mutations and epigenetic alterations. This will enable investigations into the impact of genomic modifications on the evolutionary dynamics of hematopoietic stem cells, including during...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director, under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310), provides $864,515 to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) to conduct research on the functional characterization of cell surface RNA biology. The project aims to explore three key hypotheses related to the molecular, biochemical and biophysical activities of cell surface RNA-binding proteins, their trafficking to the cell surface, and the intersection between cell surface RNA-binding proteins and disease pathogenesis. The expected outcomes are to reveal that the biochemical activities of RNA-binding proteins extend beyond the intracellular space to the cell surface, and to provide proof-of-concept on the importance of cell surface RNA-binding proteins in human disease. The project period runs from September 3, 2024 to August 31, 2029.
