- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports collaborative research at North Dakota State University (NDSU) to mechanistically examine aging dynamics across insect life stages and tissues. The $614,175 award from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026 will investigate how insect metamorphosis and overwintering dormancy (diapause) influence cellular senescence and organismal lifespan. The research aims to provide new...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,249,147.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The grant is a collaborative effort between Epicypher, Inc., a biotechnology company in Durham, North Carolina, and Dr. Nicolas Young of Baylor College of Medicine to develop a novel platform called AgingPTM for studying aging-associated combinatorial histone post-translational modifications (ACPTMs) in tissue. This platform is intended to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $438,625.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) to Brown University aims to study how the cellular senescence phenotype changes over time and develop technology to track the duration of cells in senescent states. The key objectives are to (1) examine how the senescence phenotype, including the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), evolves from early to deeper states, and (2) advance a multi-symbol molecular recorder...
