10x Genomics Grant Program

We’re inviting researchers to submit an abstract sharing your innovative plans to use single cell sequencing solutions from 10x Genomics in your research. The goal of this program is to help TAU Faculty of Medicine researchers as they seek to generate pilot data to submit in support of future grant applications, and to enable the use of cutting-edge solutions from 10x Genomics for genomic and translational research.

Bulk sequencing methods can mask the true variation of cell populations. High-throughput single cell solutions from 10x Genomics offer a multidimensional view of complex biological systems. Look at gene expression profiles for hundreds to tens of thousands of individual cells in parallel. Simultaneously measure immune repertoire, cell-surface proteins, antigen specificity, and more for single cells in the same assay. These technologies can help investigators access new perspectives on the inner workings of biology that can quickly lead to new insights.

Submit an abstract (max 300 words) proposing a pilot research project that uses one of the single cell solutions from 10x Genomics below. The 10x Genomics team together with Single Cell Genomics Core Lab at the TAU Faculty of Medicine committee will review and select winners based on research creativity and innovation.

The 2  winners will be selected and will be awarded:

• Services from Single Cell Genomics Core Lab at TAU for one of the following:
