This grant from the National Institutes of Health aims to support the development of innovative approaches to elucidate the impact of genetic variants on human health. By focusing on how specific variants influence function and disease processes, this program seeks to address the challenge of identifying variants of uncertain significance and their clinical implications. Researchers are encouraged to propose novel and commercializable strategies that offer insights into the relationship between genetic variation and health outcomes for improved clinical implementation. Application deadline: September 5, 2021.

Description: | Genome-wide association studies and other disease studies have identified many variants that are statistically associated with disease risk, disease protection, or other traits. However, such studies do not generally show which specific variants in genomic elements cause these effects, or how they result in differences in function. Similarly, genomic sequencing studies in clinical settings have identified many variants in healthy and diseased individuals. However, the pathogenicity of such variants is often unknown, leading to their classification as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), which makes clinical implementation difficult. This Program Announcement which has companion R21 and R01 Program Announcements aims to support the development of novel and generalizable commercialized approaches to study how genetic variants lead to differences in function and to study how such functional differences affect human health and disease processes or how this knowledge can be used clinically. |
