NHLBI TOPMed: Omics Phenotypes of Heart, Lung, and Blood Disorders (X01 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Does this fit your business?

This is not a money grant. It is an NIH/X01 mechanism that lets approved applicants run analyses on NHLBI TOPMed genetic and multi-omics data for heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders and deposit results in public NIH databases — and the NOFO states no funding will be provided. It fits research teams with the computational and genomics capacity to do that work; any business or organization expecting a check to cover costs should not bother applying.

Best for

Genomics and multi-omics researchers with access to TOPMed data, Universities and academic medical centers doing heart, lung, blood, or sleep research, Nonprofits and research institutes able to deposit data in NIH public databases, Small businesses with bioinformatics or functional genomics capability

Not for

Businesses looking for actual funding — this NOFO provides none, Companies outside genomics, biotech, or health data research, Organizations unable or unwilling to deposit results in public NIH databases

These are our matcher’s estimates for a typical business in each industry. A real match depends on your size, your state and what you need the money for — check your own fit.

Small businesses, other for-profits, nonprofits (with or without 501(c)(3) status), public and private universities, independent school districts, state, county, city, and special district governments, public and Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized and other Native American tribal governments and organizations. Foreign organizations, federal agencies, and certain serving institutions such as HBCUs and Hispanic-serving institutions are also listed as eligible.

Can a sole proprietor or single-member LLC apply?

The facts do not say. Sole proprietors are not named in the eligible applicant codes, and single-member LLCs would fall under the small business or for-profit categories only if they qualify as such; check with NIH or the full NOFO before assuming eligibility.

Can a nonprofit apply?

Yes. Nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education, are both listed as eligible applicants.
