OpportunityTitle: Feasibility Studies to Develop Technology and Methods for Genomics, Population Genomics and ELSI (R21)
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Foreign institutions are eligible to apply. Eligible agencies of the Federal Government can apply. Faith-based or community-based organizations can apply.
Description: -Purpose. To support feasibility studies to conduct innovative high risk/high payoff research related to genomics, including analysis of genome structure and function, genetic variation, population genomics, and ELSI (ethical, legal, and social implications). -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-07-458, that solicits applications under the R01 mechanism. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
