| Description: | The NIH invites applications to use whole genome sequencing at an NHGRI-supported sequencing center to investigate the genetic etiology of structural birth defects, and to further elucidate the genetic contribution to childhood cancers and the genomic contributions to treatment failure for childhood sarcomas.These data will become part of a data resource for the pediatric research community. Information from this activity will be used to help design future activities of the Gabriella Miller Kids First (Kids First) Pediatric Research Program. |
