Small Business Informatics Tools for the Pangenome (R41 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

closed

This PAR seeks applications from eligible Small Business Concerns (SBCs) for the development of informatics tools with commercial potential to facilitate uptake and scientific use of the human pangenome reference being developed and maintained by the NHGRI Human Genome Reference Program (HGRP). This PAR specifically calls for innovative Phase I STTR applications from SBCs to demonstrate proof of principle or viability of informatics tools for use of the human pangenome. Emphasis will be on the development of tools to advance compelling use cases that are relevant to different broad sectors of the genomics community, e.g., clinical, population, and functional genomics.
