Human Technopole’s National Facilities are inviting Expressions of Interest (EoI) to access Whole Genome Sequencing and Analysis services for large-scale population genomics studies in the biomedical field.
This initiative leverages Human Technopole’s current infrastructure, which can support whole-genome sequencing of at least 10,000 samples annually through subsidised access to services provided by the National Facilities for Genomics and for Data Handling and Analysis.
Large-scale genomics projects have proven transformative in understanding disease mechanisms, identifying genetic risk factors and enabling precision medicine approaches. By coordinating national efforts through this call, Human Technopole aims to maximise the scientific and clinical impact of Italy’s investment in genomic infrastructure whilst positioning the country to contribute substantially to international genomic medicine efforts.
This request for expressions of interest is designed to gauge the needs, vision and potential contributions of Italy’s scientific community towards genomic medicine. Whilst submitted expressions of interest will not undergo formal evaluation and do not constitute applications for access to the National Facilities, submitting an expression of interest is a mandatory prerequisite for participation in any subsequent calls for Special Projects (26-SP-G-LARGE SCALE).
Key dates:
- 9th February 2026: Applications Open
- 20th of April 2026: Applications Deadline
More information on how to submit the expression of interest can be found here.
We expect the analysis of all the EoIs submitted to guide drafting of a call, which we anticipate should be communicated in the later half of 2026.
