This federal Project Grant award, valued at $143,285.00, was provided by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121). The funding supports research at the University of Southern California to investigate the cellular origins of jaw joint cartilage regeneration in zebrafish. The key objectives are to optimize a transgenic model for joint cartilage ablation and lineage trace potential progenitor cell...
This National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) Project Grant award under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) provides $320,053 to the University of Southern California (USC) to conduct comprehensive research on the craniofacial skeleton and connective tissue development. The 8-year project will utilize advanced techniques in spatial transcriptomics and mouse genetics to identify genes and pathways regulating the assembly of the craniofacial...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $2,055,996 Project Grant (CFDA 93.121 - Oral Diseases and Disorders Research) to the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston to investigate skeletal stem cell plasticity as a central mechanism of craniofacial bone formation and disease. The research program will: 1) Interrogate the fates and functions of periosteal and endosteal stem cells in load-bearing craniofacial bones under normal and regenerative...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $215,256 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to the University of Illinois. The grant, with an award date of August 1, 2024 and an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2028, supports research to develop a controlled release system for engineered anti-inflammatory extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem cells. The goal is to address the challenge of...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will provide $429,000.00 to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on the unique characteristics of jawbone biology. The research aims to gain a molecular-level understanding of how osteoblasts in the jawbone respond differently to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling and mechanical loading...
This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $1,013,625.00 was issued on August 8, 2024 by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121). The goal of the research is to develop a secure disc replacement alternative for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc removal patients, who currently lack FDA-approved options and face issues due to bone-to-bone contact and subsequent joint problems. The proposed...
This Project Grant award of $889,616.00 was provided by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), which administers the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.121). The funding supports research to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which specific RNAs and proteins enriched in neural crest cell (NCC) projections promote NCC migration, which is relevant to understanding neural crest-associated birth defects and cancer...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $452,681 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) for the project "Control of Mammalian Craniofacial Morphogenesis by the ESCRT Machinery". The research aims to determine the tissue-specific roles of the ESCRT machinery in regulating signaling pathways and lipid metabolism during mammalian...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $400,825 and awarded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), aims to understand the progression of healing phases across differential healing outcomes at the spatio-temporal single cell level. The grant recipient, the University of Illinois, will use state-of-the-art single cell and spatial sequencing technologies to systematically compare cell type...

This federal Project Grant award, valued at $161,762.00 and awarded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), supports research on the role of the NG2/CSPG4 protein in the healing of endochondral fractures in the mandible. The research aims to define the specific molecular pathways by which NG2/CSPG4 regulates the differentiation of osteochondral progenitor cells during fracture repair, with the goal of improving clinical outcomes and developing new therapeutic interventions. The project utilizes a preclinical murine model of mandibular fracture healing, along with transgenic knockout animal models, to address this important unmet clinical need in craniofacial trauma. The award recipient is the University of Illinois, which has extensive experience in federally funded research across diverse scientific and medical disciplines.
