Oncology NGS testing
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
I am employed at a government-based laboratory that caters to over 80% of the countries patients. Despite our extensive services, there is a noticeable absence of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) testing for all types of cancers. I am based at a Sequencing Core Facility (SCF), an accredited laboratory equipped with a robust infrastructure capable of sequencing various biological samples. Over the past eight years, the SCF has successfully processed more than 100,000 whole genome sequences. This grant seeks to revolutionize cancer diagnostics by introducing comprehensive NGS testing that covers over 500 genes across most solid tumors, addressing a critical gap in our country. I need grant funding to perform a proof of concept study leveraging next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect genetic mutations across different solid tumors, using a modest dataset of fewer than 100 samples.
Here's what I'm looking for in a grant writer:
- Understanding of the use of NGS panels for oncology purposes
- Experience with solid tumor genomic research
- Some insight into identifying actionable mutations and bioinformatics, particularly for cancer
- Background in developing targeted therapy strategies
I am a medical scientist and a bioinformatician and my skills include oncology, molecular techniques, NGS and bioinformatics. I am in search of a grant writer to secure funding for a proof-of-concept study demonstrating our ability to conduct Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) on a diverse range of cancers using a comprehensive panel of over 500 genes. The funds are required to support this project. I have access to samples, expertise from clinicians, NGS equipment, and analytical capabilities at the Sequencing Core Facility (SCF) where I am currently situated. I am seeking a grant writer with a track record of success in securing funds for projects similar to mine or those of a comparable nature. Your expertise will directly contribute to the identification of potential targeted therapies that could revolutionize cancer treatment.
