The National Human Genome Research Institute and other institutes will fund genome sequencing centers to focus on understanding the genomic bases of common and rare human diseases. The Centers for Common Disease Genomics will use genome sequencing to explore the genomics of common diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke and autism. NHGRI is also funding the next phase of the Centers for Mendelian Genomics, which will investigate the genomic underpinnings of rare, inherited diseases.
