Description: The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to establish one or two centers that can rapidly generate high quality whole genome sequence and variant data from a large number of human specimens representing two types of pediatric conditions - childhood cancers and structural birth defects. All sequence data generated under this FOA will be re-processed and harmonized by the Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Data Resource Center (Kids First DRC), which is also charged with building a public-facing, web-based portal that will allow researchers to search, access, aggregate, analyze, and share annotated genomic sequence, variant, and phenotypic datasets. Together these resources will promote comprehensive and cross-cutting research and collaboration within the pediatric research community.
