- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under CFDA Number 47.041 - Engineering provides $360,000 in funding to Cornell University from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026 to develop a novel biosensing platform for the simultaneous detection and quantification of exosomes (small vesicles released from cells) and their molecular cargo. The key objectives are to: (1) develop methods to capture, quantify, and profile exosomes using a plasmonic biosensor; (2) develop techniques to lyse the...
- This Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $265,151.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to the University of Southern California. The project aims to use mathematical modeling and experiments to understand what regulates leakiness in the lymphatic system, with the goal of developing strategies to modulate lymphatic permeability. The research will investigate how lipids regulate CD36, a long-chain fatty acid translocase,...
- This $487,795 award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering grant program (CFDA 47.041) supports Arizona State University in developing innovative ex vivo models of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The project aims to mechanistically understand how biophysical cues and signaling between stromal and immune cells contribute to the transition of tumor cells into an invasive phenotype, as well as explore how stromal cell function induces pathway signatures in tumor cells leading to...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) has awarded a $467,202 project grant to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) to develop an intelligent lab-on-chip device that can non-invasively monitor the maturation of stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes in real-time and apply adaptive biophysical stimulation to promote full cell maturation. The interdisciplinary research team from RFCUNY, City College of New York, and Rutgers University plans...
- This $429,114 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund the development and validation of a first-of-its-kind multi-tissue on-a-chip breast-skin platform. The platform will feature integrated blood and lymphatic vasculature to study the spatial and temporal processes of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), dermal lymphatic invasion (DLI), and skin metastasis in breast cancer. The central hypothesis is that the cross-talk...
