This grant from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases aims to fund research projects focusing on the genetic variations associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Researchers will characterize these variants and conduct functional studies to identify causal genes and potential variants. The goal is to gain new insights into the disease pathogenesis and mechanisms underlying T1D risk. Applications are open until February 17, 2016.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages research project grantapplications from institutions/organizations for projects to characterize the genetic variations in human genomic regions that have been putatively associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and conduct follow-up functional studies of particular genetic variants. In addition there are many human T1D regions for which there is no compelling functional candidate gene and thus additional work to identify causal genes and potential causal variants and elucidate the mechanisms whereby changes in the function or regulation of these genes are likely to provide crucial new insights into disease pathogenesis are also encouraged. |
