The NIH is offering this Research Education Program (UE5) grant to encourage individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those underrepresented in biomedical and behavioral sciences, to pursue further studies or careers in computational genomics and data science. This grant is specifically designed to support creative educational activities with a primary focus on skills development. It will fund faculty members at Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs) to develop new undergraduate or master’s degree courses in computational genomics, data science, or a combination. These courses will leverage resources from NIH cloud computing platforms like NHGRI’s AnVIL and the All of Us Researcher Workbench, aiming to foster a more inclusive and skilled workforce in these critical fields.
