This grant from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) is for developing informatics tools crucial for leveraging the improved human pangenome reference. It offers multiple awards for tools addressing common use cases relevant to broad genomics sectors, including clinical, population, and functional genomics. Proposals should focus on innovative solutions for tasks such as selecting optimal subsets of linear genomes or paths for samples, visualizing complex genetic variation, and accurately annotating regulatory elements and disease associations. The initiative seeks to significantly enhance the genomics community’s capacity to utilize the advanced pangenome reference effectively.

| Description: | The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) will renew the Human Genome Reference Program (HGRP). This Informatics Tools for the Pangenome NOFO will provide multiple awards to develop informatics tools that enable uptake and use of the improved pangenome reference. Emphasis will be on tools for common use cases that are relevant to different broad sectors of the genomics community, e.g., clinical, population, and functional genomics. Possible examples include selecting the best subset of linear genomes or paths along the graph for a given set of samples, visualizing complex variation, and annotating regulatory elements and disease associations. |
