CCGR ANNOUNCES CLINICAL TRAINEE PILOT RESEARCH GRANT AWARDEES
The Duke Center for Combinatorial Gene Regulation (CCGR), an NIH-funded Center of Excellence in Genome Science, awarded two Clinical Trainee Pilot Research Grants of $15,000 each to Duke clinical trainees. The goal of these grants is to offer multi-disciplinary/cohort-based training in genetics and genomics for clinical trainees, expand the cohorts available to the CCGR project and develop new clinical partnerships.
