genomics discovery initiative
A collaborative functional genomics screening community
The Genomics Discovery Initiative (GDI; formerly the RNAi Global Initiative) is a global consortium of researchers who utilize Dharmacon RNAi and CRISPR screening libraries for high-throughput functional genomics studies. Membership includes but is not limited to:
- Annual in-person meetings to facilitate collaborations, share key findings and best practices
- Opportunities to participate in early-access projects with Dharmacon tools and technologies
- Private LinkedIn message board access for on-the-spot discussion forums, announcements, and FAQs
- Prioritized, expert technical support from Ph.D. scientists
To learn more, read below or complete the membership information request form.
History
In 2005, Dharmacon founded the RNAi Global Initiative to bring together ten visionary research institutions and investigators to harness the potential of genome-wide siRNA screens as an important functional genomic tool. For 11 years, this community actively engaged to advance our understanding of RNAi technology and the possibilities of arrayed loss-of-function screening.
The results of this Initiative have been substantial; over 60 member institutes worldwide, multiple shared publications, and hundreds of published whole genome siRNA screens (and counting)!
CRISPR and functional screening
The advent of CRISPR-Cas9 as a functional genomics tool has transformed the primary goals of RNAi Global and its members, from experimental screening set-up and support to incorporation of new technologies into functional genomics studies.
The community will now carry a new name, the Genomics Discovery Initiative.
Testimonials from some of our members
“RNAi Global membership has been a great help to us. Being able to attend these meetings lets us interact with these people who are doing cutting-edge work, so we can get a lot of feedback, and a lot of help in terms of setting up our screens”
“It’s a big family…all of these amazingly gifted researchers from all over the world who are experts in screening, coming together.” Jerolen Naidoo, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research
“One of the nicest parts is being in contact with other groups, worldwide, we learn from their experience…[there is] a feeling of friendship that goes beyond the meetings.” Ghil Jona, Weizmann Institute of Science
“I don’t think I can speak highly enough of the entire Initiative as a whole…It’s like no other vendor relationship I’ve had before. They’re not trying to sell you something, they’re working with you.” Kaylene Simpson, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre
“Working with RNAi Global has allowed us to develop assays quicker, faster, and better.” Ralph Tripp, University of Georgia
