The Center for Genomic Science Innovation is developing innovative technologies in genome science to tackle important problems for society. Our mission is to create new technologies for genome-enabled biological measurement, new computational approaches to analyze the resulting data, and integrative application of those methods to address modern problems in medicine, agriculture, environmental science, and scientific discovery.
Your generous contribution supports our mission in driving innovative and impactful research advances and training future leaders in genomics. Gifts of any amount make a difference and can have a lasting impact. Funding priorities of the CGSI include:
- Innovate groundbreaking genomic research: Transformative research is often the riskiest to launch – and thus the most difficult to fund through traditional granting mechanisms. Your support enables innovative breakthroughs in genomic science, with broad applications.
- Training the leaders of tomorrow: CGSI maintains a strong commitment to education, from undergraduate to graduate to postdoctoral training. Contributions support programs including the Summer Research Opportunity Program in Genomic and Biomedical Data Science, which provides outstanding training for summer undergraduate researchers.
- Collaborative genomics at UW-Madison: Impactful science is often driven by interdisciplinary collaborations that span disciplines. Contributions support collaborative projects connecting CGSI with the broader community at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
