Genewiz Oncology Insights Grant Program 2024

Genewiz proud to recognize excellence in oncology research with tailored grant funding to support your continued discovery. As part of our Oncology Insights Grant Program, four researchers will be awarded an oncology-focused grant to use towards a service with GENEWIZ Multiomics & Synthesis Solutions from Azenta Life Sciences – including gene synthesis, precision antibody discovery using machine learning, next generation sequencing (NGS), and Olink proteomics.

The grants include: 

• One $5,000 grant towards a Gene Synthesis oncology application: Traditional molecular cloning methods are often complex. Gene synthesis provides an efficient method to quickly generate constructs for exploration of cancer mechanisms in vitro, while also providing precise sequence vectors for therapeutic development. Leveraging gene synthesis in your oncology research can enable you to efficiently characterize the effects of genomic mutations on the mechanisms of cellular functions. Learn More >
• One $10,000 grant towards a Precision Antibody Discovery oncology application: Selecting the right antibody leads from a large upstream pool with favorable downstream development characteristics the first time around is essential for successful, rapid therapeutic development. Combining NGS, machine learning bioinformatics, and recombinant antibody production into a singular workflow, our Precision Antibody Discovery service empowers you to rapidly discover diverse leads that you would otherwise miss with traditional screening technologies and processes– uncovering 5-10X more leads than low-throughput approaches.

• One $5,000 grant towards an NGS oncology application: Cancer researchers can use whole genome, exome, and targeted amplicon next generation sequencing (NGS) approaches to characterize cancer-associated mutations and other biomarkers. Leveraging the latest long-read and short-read technology, GENEWIZ Next Generation Sequencing can help you gain a wider perspective and understanding of your research with comprehensive genomic coverage.

• One $5,000 grant towards an Olink Proteomics oncology application: Olink Proteomics enables high-throughput, simultaneous analysis of proteins with high specificity and sensitivity using minimal sample amounts to provide an in-depth understanding of disease and drug response. Using protein biomarker detection with Olink Proteomics, clinical trial researchers can identify known cancer biomarkers within a patient population to accurately identify subsets of the population with increased sensitivity to the therapeutic being tested.

Grants

• One award consists of a $5,000 value (or its local currency equivalent) toward a single order towards a GENEWIZ Gene Synthesis oncology application (no assay type restrictions).
• A second award consists of a $10,000 credit (or its local currency equivalent) toward a single order using the newly introduced GENEWIZ Precision Antibody Discovery (PAD) service.
• A third award of $5,000 (or its local currency equivalent) is to be allocated towards a single order using GENEWIZ Next Generation Sequencing in an oncology-related application.
• The fourth and final award of $5,000 (or its local currency equivalent) is to be used for a single order using GENEWIZ Olink Proteomics services offered through GENEWIZ from Azenta Life Sciences. All awarded amounts will be made available in the form of an account credit. Any unused credit will be forfeited and cannot be transferred to another project.​
