- This federal Project Grant award of $265,410 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173) supports research to characterize how heterogeneous regional expression of mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) channel components contributes to vestibular hair cell function and development, and whether early MET expression defines a critical period for gene replacement therapy....
- This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program, totaling $731,931, will fund research into the nonlinear dynamics of auditory hair cells and efferent neurons. Specifically, the University of California, Los Angeles will directly measure how stimulation of efferent neurons affects the sensitivity of hair cells to detect weak signals and withstand strong stimuli. Researchers will compare experimental findings to nonlinear dynamics...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the federal grant program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173), supports research into how phospholipid homeostasis regulates the function and health of sensory hair cells in the inner ear. The $115,707 award, with a period of performance from September 30, 2025 to April 30, 2029, will investigate the role of the phospholipid flippase...
- This Project Grant award of $637,500.00 was provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The goal of the project is to understand the forward transduction that drives inner and outer hair cell stereocilia, as well as the reverse transduction that amplifies motion in the human cochlea, using a novel finite element modeling technique. The research will focus...
- This federal Project Grant award of $448,687, provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), supports research to investigate the role of calcium regulation in outer hair cells (OHCs) and their sensitivity to cochlear injury. The research aims to enhance understanding of the mechanisms that protect OHCs, which act as sentinels of cochlear injury, from damage due...
- This five-year, $734,582 Project Grant from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders will fund research at Lehigh University to investigate the developmental determination of central auditory physiology by the inner ear. The grant is part of the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program. Specifically, the university will develop a model of repatterned frequency representation in the chick inner ear by overexpressing the bone morphogenetic...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program, will fund the development of a CRISPR-based toolkit to investigate hair cell transcription factors in inner ear organoids. The $249,000 grant awarded to Merrimack College will enable the research team to: 1) Define the transcription factors involved in in vitro inner ear organoid hair cell development...
- This $1,145,674 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will fund research at Case Western Reserve University to investigate the role of TMC proteins in hair cell mechanotransduction in zebrafish. Specifically, the project aims to determine if TMCs contribute differently to zebrafish hearing, the role of TMCs in hair cell mechanotransduction and lateral line-mediated...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (93.173), provides $693,856 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct research on the structure and function of coordinated neural activity in the auditory system. The key objectives of this 5-year research project are to: 1) Identify coordinated neural...
