This grant is for the purpose of advancing our understanding of the human microbiome’s role in health and disease. Specifically, the NIH Common Fund Human Microbiome Project is seeking applications to generate comprehensive multi-omic data, including taxonomic, metagenomic, and functional information, from clinical biospecimens. These samples must come from carefully phenotyped subjects representing various health and disease states. A key objective is to integrate this rich microbiome data with corresponding host data. The ultimate goal is to foster collaborative research and create a valuable community resource. This initiative aims to deepen insights into how the human microbiome influences physiological conditions and disease progression, contributing significantly to a foundational understanding within the broader Human Microbiome Project.
