Grant Programs | National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research

The Translational Genetics and Genomics Program supports research designed to identify the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases and health. Research focusing on genetics or on the interplay of genetic and environmental factors to improve understanding of genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying dental, oral, and craniofacial diseases and health is supported by this program.
