Discovery of the Genetic Basis of Childhood Cancers and of Congenital Anomalies: Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program
Funds whole-genome or related sequencing of pediatric cancer or congenital-anomaly cohort samples through the Kids First biobank.
Some of the genetics behind childhood cancer and birth differences are still unmapped, and the bottleneck is often sequencing capacity rather than a shortage of samples. This programme pays for the sequencing.
Applicants submit samples from paediatric cohorts, existing pediatric cancer or congenital-anomaly collections, for whole genome sequencing at a Kids First Program-supported genomic data ge…
Submission of existing pediatric cancer or congenital-anomaly cohort samples for whole genome, exome, transcriptome, clinical-grade or long-read sequencing, proteomics or epigenomic assays at a Kids First Program-supported genomic data generating centre, to expand the Kids First Data Resource Center. A clinical trial is not allowed.
