The National Science Foundation Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences awarded Northeastern University a $100,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support research on "The Biophysics of Collective Cell Locomotion" from December 15, 2021 through December 31, 2023. Through this funding, Northeastern University researchers in Boston, MA will investigate the major problem of understanding the biological sciences by examining the biophysics underlying how groups of cells move collectively. As the Biological Sciences program seeks to promote progress in this field and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise, this award will further the program's goals by generating new scientific knowledge about collective cell locomotion through basic research.
