NIH grants $10.5 Million for Genome Explorations -The Burrill Report:

The National Human Genome Research Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, is awarding $10.5 million in ten grants to help researchers identify millions of genomic elements that play a role in determining what genes are expressed and at what levels in different cells. The multi-year grants are part of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements project, or ENCODE, set up to provide scientists with a comprehensive catalog of functional genomic elements. The project's goal is to help explain the role that the genome plays in health and disease.

Description

The OCRP Outcomes Consortium Development Award supports a multi-institutional research effort conducted by leading ovarian cancer researchers and consumer advocates that specifically focuses on identifying and understanding predictors of disease outcomes in ovarian cancer patients. This effort will be executed through a two-stage approach using two separate award mechanisms: this FY12 Outcomes Consortium Development Award, which will enable the consortium to lay the groundwork for the research project, including proof of concept, and the FY14 Outcomes Consortium Award, which will support the execution of the full research project.
