In December 2021, we shared our vision to build the future of science by advancing research and developing technologies to observe, measure, and analyze any biological process within the human body — across spatial scales and in real time.
Imaging RFAs
Advancing Imaging Through Collaborative Projects and Dynamic Imaging RFA
- To make progress toward this vision, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) is seeking applications for a Dynamic Imaging RFA that aims to advance technology directed at real-time visualization of biological processes at the level of cells and molecules, along with an Advancing Imaging Through Collaborative Projects RFA that seeks to accelerate the dissemination and adoption of imaging technologies, methods, platforms, or training resources.
Single-Cell Biology RFA
Single-Cell Biology Data Insights Cycle 2 RFA
- In addition, given the growth of single-cell biology and the rapid increase in available data, the new Data Insights Cycle 2 RFA will support projects to advance the fields of single-cell biology and data science. CZI seeks applications for projects that aim to use and gain insights into health and disease from existing single-cell datasets to help accelerate progress toward challenges associated with the compilation and exploration of large atlas-scale data. We encourage applications in rapidly expanding areas such as:
- Projects that aim to develop scalable and robust tools and methods for data analysis problems in spatial transcriptomic;
- Projects that use meta-analysis and data integration to study questions such as the heterogeneity of healthy tissues and changes in tissues during disease states; and
- Projects that aim to increase the robustness and performance of tools of broad interest and will enable new domains of utility for single-cell data.
