MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES Back to Top
  • Precision Medicine - The Budget includes $10 million on a one-time basis to the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) to further the efforts of the California Initiative to Advance Precision Medicine (CIAPM), and build on the $3 million appropriation made in the 2014 Budget Act. Hosted by the University of California (UC) San Francisco and University of California Health through an interagency agreement with OPR, CIAPM currently funds two demonstration projects: the Kids Cancer Comparison Project, led by UC Santa Cruz, and the Precision Diagnosis of Acute Infectious Disease project, led by UC San Francisco, with both projects representing multi-institution collaboration and in-kind support. The $10 million augmentation will fund additional demonstration projects in precision medicine over a multi-year period and facilitate additional multi-institution and private-sector partnerships, with a portion of this funding subject to non-state matching funds. Projects will be expected to demonstrate concrete results and findings related to uses of precision medicine within a 24-month period.
