Healthcare IT News: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has awarded grants totaling more than $30 million to 12 universities, hospitals and medical groups to pursue research projects that tie DNA sequence information into electronic medical records.
The grants will be administered by the NIH-affiliated National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), as part of the continuing research by the Electronic Medical Records and Genomics (eMERGE) network (also NIH-affiliated), to better understand the genomic basis of disease and to tailor medical care to individual patients based on their genomic differences.
