Office of Science Financial Assistance Program Notice 03-06: Human Genome Program-Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications

The Office of Biological and Environmental Research (OBER) of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), hereby announces its interest in receiving applications in support of the Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications (ELSI) subprogram of the Human Genome Program (HGP). Applications should focus on issues of: (1) Genetics and the workplace, and (2) complex or multigenic traits. This particular research notice invites research applications that address ethical, legal, and social implications resulting from the use of information and knowledge resulting from the HGP. This notice is part of a transition towards a wider societal implications activity in OBER, linked to the Genomes to Life program and no longer focusing principally on human genomics.
