UC San Francisco (UCSF), UC Davis (UCD) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), have formed a Tri-Institutional Partnership on Microbiome Research to catalyze and fund bold, synergistic, and potentially transformative collaborative research. We enthusiastically invite your participation in this partnership.

The Tri-Institutional Partnership on Microbiome Research will be convening an all-day workshop on Feb. 5, 2020 at the Integrative Genomics Building at LBNL. The workshop will foster cross-institutional interaction and will follow with a substantive seed grant opportunity supported by all three institutions. The focus of this collaborative effort will be to tackle the major gaps in microbiome knowledge and technology that have been identified by the OSTI Microbiome Interagency Working Group’s FY2018-2022 Strategic Plan for Microbiome Research, with the goal of positioning the institutions favorably for follow-on extramural funding.

Invitation: Tri-Institutional Partnership on Microbiome Research Proposer's Day Workshop    Please register by January 24, 2020.
