- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $240,000 in funding from February 1, 2024 to January 31, 2027 to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on investigating a novel circadian time-keeping mechanism revealed by environmental manipulation. The research plan aims to identify the location in the brain and the mechanism of a non-canonical clock that can rescue daily rhythms in mice with disrupted central clock...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke awarded the University of Massachusetts Medical School $460,625 on August 1, 2026, under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders program (CFDA 93.853) to investigate time-dependent membrane proteomics in circadian pacemaker neurons. The recipient will use cutting-edge proteomic approaches combined with biotin proximity labeling to survey the membrane proteome of circadian neurons during the...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded The Trustees of The University of Pennsylvania $487,287 on March 10, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to support investigation of circadian rhythm mechanisms beyond traditional genetic control. The research explores how cells and organisms maintain daily temporal organization through integration of genetic and non-genetic mechanisms, with focus on metabolic and redox processes that sustain...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded California Institute of Technology $1.872 million on March 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to conduct research on mechanisms in the mammalian circadian clock. The research addresses gaps in understanding the central transcription-translation feedback loop (TTFL) that drives circadian oscillations, which regulate sleep-wake patterns, metabolism, and immune responses. The work comprises...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the University of Cincinnati $760,178 on September 10, 2025, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to investigate molecular mechanisms that determine circadian rhythm period and light-dependent phase shift. The recipient will combine mathematical modeling, statistical uncertainty quantification methods, and experimental validation to elucidate how transcriptional and translational feedback loops...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke awarded Boston Children's Hospital $711,952 under Project Grant R01NS144151 on May 2, 2026, to investigate circadian regulation of synaptic function and sleep-wake behavior. The research examines how circadian rhythms regulate synaptic function to modulate behavior with time of day, focusing on the molecular mechanisms by which the transcription factor BMAL1 and its phosphorylation at serine 42 orchestrate synaptic vesicle dynamics,...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke awarded The Ohio State University $630,925 on May 1, 2026, to investigate circadian clock physiology in cortico-limbic brain circuits and its role in regulating complex behavioral states including mood, memory, and executive function. The research examines how transcriptional timing feedback loops and clock oscillators outside the suprachiasmatic nucleus operate at cellular and systems levels within cortico-limbic circuits, and how...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke awarded the University of California, Los Angeles $433,125 on September 2, 2026, under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders program (CFDA 93.853) to investigate genes and neurons associated with circadian chronotype across Drosophila species. The project quantifies locomotor activity patterns across 63 related Drosophilid species to identify genetic and neural correlates of morning and evening...
