This funding supports centers to develop, apply, and test predictive models and integrative analyses to understand how genomic variation affects genome function. Funded centers will join the IGVF Consortium, collaborating on experimental design, providing analytical expertise, and developing shared strategies to meet consortium goals. The initiative excludes clinical trials and emphasizes resource accessibility and consortium-wide collaboration.
Eligible applicants include a wide range of U.S. government entities, educational institutions, nonprofits, for-profit organizations, small businesses, and foreign organizations. Foreign subawards/subcontracts are not allowed unless specifically designated for international collaborations.
