The U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Health Agency awarded a $749,999 Project Grant to the University of Louisville's Office of Research & Innovation to support the "RESTORATION OF MACROPHAGE FUNCTION AS A STRATEGY TO PREVENT/TREAT LUPUS" research project. The grant, which runs from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, is funded through the Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420). This program supports a range of biomedical research aimed at developing new treatments, improving patient care, and advancing scientific understanding of conditions affecting service members and veterans, with a focus on areas like cancer, neurological disorders, and substance use disorders. The University of Louisville's research project seeks to investigate new strategies for preventing and treating lupus by restoring macrophage function.
