Happy Solstice!
On behalf of IDG we thank you for your continued interest and involvement with the IDG Consortium. And as we pass through the solstice and the northern hemisphere gains more light, we aim those beams toward the understudied targets and hope our IDG developed resources and science continues to inspire and enlighten future research.

NIH Funding Opportunity
NIH announced a new R03 grant program entitled "Pilot Projects Enhancing Utility and Usage of Common Fund Data Sets (R03 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)" (RFA-RM-21-007). This opportunity is for one-year projects, $200,000 direct cost limit. Projects should conduct analyses of two or more NIH Common Fund datasets or develop workflows/tools for simultaneous analysis of multiple Common Fund datasets. Applications are due February 19, 2021. IDG data are part of the list of Common Fund Data Sets included in this funding opportunity -
- Illuminating the Druggable Genome (IDG) (https://druggablegenome.net/): Data on understudied druggable proteins, including mRNA and protein expression data, phenotype associations, bioactivity data, drug target interactions, disease links, and functional information
For more information please visit the NIH link for RFA-RM-21-007.
