Coordination Hub
Building collaboration and leading on data coordination, funding and training opportunities
Based at the University of Exeter, the Coordination Hub plays a key role in oversight of the initiative, managing data coordination, training and funding opportunities while building collaboration and facilitating knowledge sharing in emerging areas of functional genomics research.
Led by Professor Jonathan Mill, Director, UK Functional Human Genomics Initiative, the team works closely with the research clusters, the Data Coordination Centre and the Functional Genomics Screening Laboratory, encouraging engagement and collaboration across the wider genomics research community.
The Coordination Hub:
- Promotes collaboration and innovation within clusters, across the research community and with industry
- Facilitates and encourages access to the models, tools and data developed within the initiative
- Manages funding and seeks out, support and communicates new opportunities
- Fosters engagement with industry and stakeholders
- Manages data sharing and intellectual property across the initiative
- Leads on the development of a Doctoral training college to train the next generation of genomics researchers
This Initiative will catalyse research into the mechanistic underpinnings of health and disease by identifying causal variants and modelling their impact in disease-relevant cell-types across key stages of development. It will facilitate innovation and collaboration among multidisciplinary teams, and accelerate the translation of functional genomic research into tangible benefits for health and well-being.Professor Jonathan Mill, Director UK Human Functional Genomics Initiative
