About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) is soliciting applications to support dissemination of genomic technologies through integrated toolkits, with no posted application deadline in this forecast announcement.
Eligible applicants span a broad range: state and local governments, tribal governments (federally and non-federally recognized), higher education institutions (public and private), for-profit and nonprofit organizations, small businesses, special district governments, independent school districts, public or Indian housing authorities, faith-based and community-based organizations, regional organizations, Indian/Native American tribal governments, eligible federal agencies, U.S. territories or possessions, and non-domestic (foreign) entities.
The initiative addresses the adoption gap between technology development in individual inventor labs and widespread deployment across the broader scientific community. Funded toolkits will comprise custom reagents and/or hardware, annotated and updated protocols, computational pipelines, and hands-on methods training and workshops. Developers will receive independent validation and user feedback to inform further maturation of genomic technologies and prime methods for wider adoption.
The program operates under Assistance Listing 93.172 (Human Genome Research). Award amounts, number of awards, cost share requirements, and period of performance are not specified in this forecast. Scientific review will be conducted by subject matter experts, with competing applications undergoing initial peer review and secondary review by an advisory council. All scored applications compete for available funds based on scientific and technical merit, program relevance, program balance, and availability of funds.
Forecast synopsis
The National Human Genome Research institute (NHGRI) funds wet-lab technology development across its portfolios, resulting in invention of innovative methods to interrogate and understand the genome. However, there is often a gap between the technology and methods development in individual inventor labs and the wide-spread deployment of these approaches to the broader scientific community. The Toolkits for Dissemination of Genomic Technologies initiative will create a pathway to lower this barrier to technology adoption by supporting the dissemination efforts of tool and technology developers in the form of an integrated toolkit containing the necessary components and information required to implement the technology. A kit would include custom reagents and/or hardware along with annotated and updated protocols, computational pipelines, and if appropriate, would be accompanied by hands-on methods training and workshops for the scientific community. Using this dissemination approach, developers would gain independent validation of their technologies and feedback from users. Feedback from toolkit users would then be applied by developers to inform further maturation of these genomic technologies, priming methods for more wide-spread adoption by the scientific community.
