Request for Applications (RFA) Pharmacogenomics in Precision Medicine by SAMRC in collaboration with KRISP & DIPLOMICS labs


The SAMRC, through its Strategic Health Innovation Partnership (SHIP) programme, is seeking to fund five highly collaborative projects in the areas of pharmacogenomics with reference to failure of treatments with drugs (or drug classes) for Non-Communicable diseases, specifically Hypertension, Cardiovascular, Diabetes and Cancer in (South) Africa. Total Budget ZAR 12-14 million, which genomics data generation should be done in a DIPLOMICS laboratory, such as KRISP, in South Africa.

Target audience: Open call for researchers based at South African universities, science councils (including the SAMRC) and other public research organizations.

Topics: Pharmacogenomics in Precision Medicine.
