Investigator Initiated Research in Computational Genomics and Data Science (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

This is a comprehensive guide about a funding opportunity, entitled Investigator Initiated Research in Computational Genomics and Data Science, where clinical trials are not allowed. This funding initiative invites applications regarding a diverse selection of research related to computational genomics, data science, statistics, and bioinformatics. It is designed to be relevant to both basic or clinical genomic science and it has wide-ranging applications for human health and disease.

The funding supports fundamental research in genomics. This includes the development of innovative analytical methods and approaches, the initial stages of tool and software development, and the refinement of high-value software and tools for the biomedical genomics community.

Projects supported by this funding must aim to augment the field of genomics, and the results should be widely applicable across a variety of diseases and biological systems. The proposal should also indicate how the research methodology can be adapted to increasingly large data sets.
