The NIH Common Fund is offering this grant to extensively characterize the human virome. This initiative aims to develop novel and innovative tools, models, and methods to enable in-depth study of the human virome’s variation, its relationship with host factors, and its influence on health and disease. The grant seeks to overcome current technological and methodological challenges hindering robust interrogation of virome constituents and functionality. Applications are encouraged for the development of innovative approaches to identify and characterize viruses, alongside computational biology and bioinformatics tools, to enhance comprehensive analysis of the virome. This program is crucial for advancing our understanding of the human virome’s role in health.
