Utah Genome Project (UGP) Announces 2019 Functional Analysis Pilot Grants

The UGP plans to award 4-7 one-year grants in 2019, up to $50,000 each, to support the generation of preliminary data for extramural grant applications. The overall goal is to foster extramural support for projects focused on functional studies assessing the impact of disease-associated human sequence variants, at levels from individual proteins to whole organisms.

The grant application deadline is Thursday, February 28, with funding to begin March 15. Applications should be submitted in PDF format, with title “PI name_FunctionalPilot2019,” to Charlie Murtaugh: murtaugh@genetics.utah.edu. Please also contact Charlie with any questions.
