AI Contract Overview
The National Institutes of Health, through the NINDS, is forecasting the establishment of a Diagnostic Research Innovation Center to support the next phase of the Undiagnosed Diseases Network. This center will operate as part of a broader ecosystem including the Clinical and Data Coordinating Center, Networks of Diagnostic Excellence, and the NIH Undiagnosed Diseases Program. The primary objective of the center is to advance innovative diagnostic tools and strategies for both genomic and non-genomic conditions, which includes the systematic re-evaluation of unsolved cases from previous network phases. The center will focus on generating and testing diagnostic hypotheses by utilizing advanced sequencing, multi-omics, and gene function studies in animal and human in vitro models. By collaborating with various network stakeholders, the center aims to identify novel disease-associated genes, genomic variants, and new syndromes. This initiative seeks an integrated center featuring investigators with a history of scientific synergy and collaboration. While this is currently a forecast to allow potential applicants time to plan and establish partnerships, formal applications are not yet being solicited.

Full Description
NINDS intends to support a Diagnostic Research Innovation Center (DRIC) for the next phase of the Undiagnosed Diseases Network (UDN). The new Network is expected to include a Clinical and Data Coordinating Center (CDCC), geographically distributed clinical Networks of Diagnostic Excellence (NODEs), the NIH Undiagnosed Diseases Program (UDP), a DRIC, the UDN Foundation, patient advocacy organizations, NIH, and other stakeholders. The DRIC will contribute to the diagnosis of UDN participants, including participating in the systematic re-evaluation of unsolved UDN cases from previous phases of the UDN.
The DRIC is expected to test and advance innovative, new diagnostic tools and strategies for both genomic and non-genomic conditions. Working closely with clinical NODEs, the UDP, the CDCC, and other UDN stakeholders, the DRIC will support the generation and testing of diagnostic hypotheses including providing expertise and resources in advanced sequencing and multi-omics, gene function studies in animal and human in vitro models, and the development of non-genetic diagnostic strategies. Collaborating with the Network, the DRIC will contribute to the discovery of novel disease-associated genes and genomic variants, non-genetic contributors to UDN phenotypes, and the identification of new diseases and syndromes. Support is expected for an integrated center that brings together complementary capabilities and investigators with demonstrated scientific synergy and prior collaboration.
Applications are not being solicited at this time. This Forecast is being published to provide potential applicants time to plan, establish collaborations, and develop responsive projects.
