Webinar: Kids First and KOMP2 Programs Collaborate on Precision Modeling of Pediatric Conditions

The NIH Common Fund’s Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) and the Knockout Mouse Phenotyping Program (KOMP2) are collaborating on a pilot project to develop mouse strains to study, phenotype, and validate coding and noncoding genetic variants (e.g. missense, structural variants, copy number variants, INDELS, frame shifts) identified from Kids First datasets. On September 21, 2018, the Kids First and KOMP2 leadership teams hosted a webinar to provide information about this collaboration. The webinar focused on background information about Kids First and KOMP2 programs and the goals of this collaboration.
