We are pleased to announce that the Philippine Council for Health Research and Development (PCHRD) has a new call for proposals that are focused on OMIC Technologies for Health Program.

The OMIC Technologies for Health Program utilizes information from different ‘OMIC’ technologies, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and bioinformatics, as input to the development of precision medicine, diagnostics, therapeutics, and as a support to health & clinical practice guidelines and policies of the Philippines.

The continuity of the country’s long-term investments in OMICS research is ensured in this current Call for Proposals, which will focus on building on the collective success of the previous projects and programs while encouraging the submission of proposals on other important but often overlooked health research and policy issues. Neuroscience OMICS, cancer research, researches on rare diseases, translational studies on CDs, and population and forensic studies will be at the forefront, along with the possible adaptation of the genomic biosurveillance model developed for SARS-CoV-2 strains to other emerging and re-emerging disease.

Submission period: 01 March 2022 – 31 March 2022 (5PM) via the DOST DPMIS (https://dpmis.dost.gov.ph/)
