The Duke School of Medicine Precision Genomics Collaboratory in collaboration with the Duke Center for Advanced Genomic Technologies (CAGT) offered pilot grants to investigators to develop and/or apply genomic technologies to significant questions in the study or treatment of human disease. These one-year, $20,000 pilot grants were open to investigators at all stages in their careers.
Congratulations to the awardees!
