Somatic Mosaicism across Human Tissues (SMaHT) Program: Experimental and Computational Technology Development (RM1 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
HHS-NIH11 Forecasted RFA-RM-28-017Description
The purpose of the Somatic Mosaicism across Human Tissues (SMaHT) Network is to advance discovery of biological processes and disease mechanisms mediated by somatic mutations in human tissues. Since 2023, the program has generated multi-omic somatic mutation datasets from standardized human tissues spanning all three germ layers. Building on the Stage 1 foundation, the NIH intends to issue a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO)supporting Stage 2 of the SMaHT Experimental and Computational Technology Development initiative. The Experimental and Computational Technology Development initiative supports multidisciplinary development, optimization, validation, benchmarking, and dissemination of rigorous, cost-effective technologies for somatic mutation detection and functional interpretation. Awardees will collaborate with other SMaHT Stage 2 initiatives to incorporate validated technologies into production workflows, pipelines, data releases, and community resources.
