    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has released a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for the NHLBI TOPMed program, aimed at generating genetic and multi-omics data to understand heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) disorders. This X01 Resource Access Award invites applications that will utilize NHLBI-funded resources to uncover molecular mechanisms related to these disorders, transitioning from a genetic mapping approach to a comprehensive understanding of disease pathobiology. No direct funding will be provided; instead, applicants must access omics data stored in NIH-designated controlled-access databases like dbGaP. The FOA encourages participation in data sharing and integration, with a focus on leveraging existing datasets to address significant knowledge gaps. Applications are required to involve well-characterized biospecimens and demonstrate the relevance of the proposed research to HLBS health. Key eligibility includes various institutions such as higher education and non-profit organizations, emphasizing diversity among applicants. Submission guidelines stress adherence to application instructions, and no clinical trials are allowed under this FOA. The anticipated number of projects awarded is up to 10, covering a maximum project period of three years.
