Description

The Genomics Research to Elucidate the Genetics of Rare Diseases: innovation (GREGoRi) initiative aims to accelerate a paradigm shift in rare disease diagnosis by developing and testing highly innovative experimental or computational approaches. These approaches should have the potential to transform the current state of the art in identifying causal genes or variants underlying rare genetic disorders. The funding opportunity supports projects that reimagine tools, molecular technologies, and analytical methods for rare disease diagnosis.
