NHLBI Microarray Programs and Initiatives:

NHLBI Shared Microarray Facilities (RFA HL-02-007)

This research program is to facilitate the application of microarray technology to fundamental, hypothesis-driven research in the area of cardiovascular, pulmonary, hematological, and sleep disorders. Eleven highly interactive, multi-disciplinary facilities were established to meet this goal. These facilities provide study design guidance, microarray service, analytical tools and guidance in the interpretation of expression profiling results, and applicable knowledge/skills development and education to NHLBI supported researchers.

Funded Investigators:

• Carolina Cardiovascular Gene Expression Services

Dr. Winston Patterson, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill

• Duke NHLBI DNA Microarray Center

Dr. Joseph Nevins, Duke University

• The Jackson Laboratory Gene Expression Service

Dr. Juergen Naggert, The Jackson Laboratory

• Massachusetts General Hospital Shared Microarray Facility

Dr. Mason Freeman, Massachusetts General Hospital

Dr. M. Bento Soares, University of Iowa

• University of Washington Center for Expression Arrays

Dr. Daniel Sabath, University of Washington

NHLBI Administrative Supplements for Microarray Applications and Analyses (NOT HL-02-003)

This was a one-time supplement announcement to support the application of microarray technology to ongoing NHLBI research programs. The goal was to provide the opportunity for NHLBI grantees to incorporate the use of microarray technology into their experimental plan when the proposed supplemental research falls within the original scope of the parent grant.
