About this award
This is a $143,862.18 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Texas Southern University, a minority-serving and historically Black college and university located in Houston, Texas. The grant supports research to assess the sensitivity of human fibroblasts and epithelial cells to different types of radiation exposure, using various genetic and transcriptional markers. No set-aside designation is indicated. Through its prime and subcontract work, Texas Southern University has provided diverse research, education, and community engagement support to federal agencies and partners like the Smithsonian Institution, New York University, and the University of Texas.
Description
We hypothesize that DNA human fibroblasts are less sensitive to radiation and therefore they will show lower amount of damages compared to human epithelial cells and this will be depended on radiation type, dose and/or exposure time. To test this hypothesis, different GI markers and whole transcriptome will be assessed.
