Key objectives of the project include advancing translational science through the use...
- This $399,198 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) supports a 5-year research project on the "Dynamics of Cell-Matrix Mechanical Communication During Morphogenesis" at the University of Rochester. The project aims to investigate how mechanical signals from the extracellular matrix modulate cellular mechanisms of remodeling and adhesion to drive tissue-level...
- The Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute (SBP) was awarded $907,406.58 under a Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health Office of the Director through the Research Infrastructure Programs program. The grant funds the acquisition of a NanoString GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler, which will enable SBP researchers to quantify proteins or mRNAs in a highly multiplexed assay across tissue sections. The instrument bridges traditional spatial analyses in SBP's histology core...
- The University of Rochester was awarded a $1,829,300.00 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Army Medical Command under the Military Medical Research and Development (CFDA 12.420) federal grant program. The grant, with a performance period from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2027, will support advanced biomedical research focused on "Mechanistic Insight into the Airborne Hazards Exposure-Related Development of Neurological Disorders." As a leading research university, the...
- This federal Project Grant award of $378,714.00 was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The award supports a 5-year research project at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) to develop novel computational and statistical methods for large-scale disease pathway discovery using graph neural networks and hierarchical Bayesian inference. The overarching goal is to improve the...
The University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) was awarded a $7,160,413 Project Grant by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Construction Support federal grant program (CFDA 93.352) to establish the Western New York Spatial Biology Research Center (SBRC). The SBRC will integrate tissue processing, histology, genomics, and bioinformatics/data analytics capabilities into a centralized facility to enable spatial 'omics research and accelerate scientific discovery. The 5,700 square foot center will provide state-of-the-art wet and dry lab space to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and develop novel analytical techniques for large-scale spatial 'omics data. The award, with a project period from September 2025 to February 2027, will enable URMC to create a comprehensive hub for transformative cross-disciplinary science in the field of spatial biology.
