Grant Description

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to invite applications to participate as a Research Center in thePediatric Cardiac Genomics Consortium(PCGC).The PCGCs mission is to identify genetic causes of human congenital heart disease (CHD) and to relate genetic variants in patients with CHD to clinical outcomes through collaborative, multi-center studies. The PCGC fosters investigation along the translational spectrum of CHD research through interactions with the basic science Cardiovascular Development Consortium (CvDC) and the Pediatric Heart Network (PHN). Together, the PCGC, CvDC, and PHN constitute the Bench to Bassinet Program (B2B). Sites not currently part of the PCGC are encouraged to apply and propose new directions for the consortium.
