NIH grant awarded to University of Iowa for research on genetic variants linked to orofacial clefts, focusing on African populations using publicly available genomic datasets.
Description
This NIH grant supports research to identify genetic variants associated with orofacial clefts using Whole Genome Sequencing data from African populations and the All of Us database. The study aims to understand the mechanisms contributing to clefts to inform prevention strategies.
