Deadline: September 17, 2021 by 5:00PM
Award Amount: There is no cap on individual awards. Approximately $2M will be available annually for grants made through this program

The newly established Harvard-Broad Genome Editing Technologies Fund will support research that improves on existing genome-editing technologies, identifies delivery mechanisms for these technologies, and applies these technologies to the understanding and treatment of rare genetic diseases. As defined by NIH, rare diseases in the United States are those that affect fewer than 200,000 people. Ladder faculty members in FAS and SEAS may request funding to support the cost of a 15-month research project. Single- and multi-investigator projects are welcome.
