The Epigenetics Institute seeks proposals for pilot grants for the evaluation of technologies for spatial transcriptomics. The goal of the program is to catalyze the use of spatial transcriptomics in the Epigenetics community and to help the Epigenetics Institute evaluate technologies with the aim of potentially committing to a commercial solution. The pilot grant itself will fund the generation of a spatial transcriptomics dataset from a company by a fee-for-service model. Analysis will be done by the PI’s team with possible help from the Epigenetics Institute. We ask that all awardees make their data available to the Epigenetics Institute, which will then be used as part of a report and internal data repository for others within the Epigenetics Institute to help them evaluate these methods for use in their own work.

Award Amount: Up to $20,000.

Award Dates:
Application Deadline: May 2, 2022, at 11:59 pm
