Near-Term Technology Development for Genome Sequencing (R01): -Purpose. The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) solicits R01 grant applications to develop novel technologies that will reduce the cost of genomic DNA sequencing by two orders of magnitude. As some technologies that have potential to achieve this goal are already in or near the commercial market, applications to this FOA will need to show clear advantage over current and emerging technologies. -Highest priority will be given to applications that either (1) propose new approaches that will outperform those being employed in the current next-generation sequencing technologies, or (2) address specific weaknesses or shortcomings in current methods. -Applicants may propose to develop full-scale sequencing systems, or to investigate key components of such systems. Such independent proposals are an important path for pursuing novel, high risk/high pay-off ideas.
