This federal Project Grant award of $693,000.00 from the Defense Health Agency was provided to the Arkansas Children's Research Institute (ACRI) to conduct research on the "Epigenetic Determinants of Corticosteroid Responsiveness in Diamond Blackfan Anemia Syndrome." The award period is from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2026.
ACRI is a pediatric medical research center that conducts clinical trials, provides specialty medical services, and carries out federally-funded research projects across a range of children's health topics. The funding for this project falls under the Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420), which supports biomedical research to transform healthcare for service members and the public. Through this award, ACRI will investigate the genetic and molecular factors that influence how patients with Diamond Blackfan Anemia respond to corticosteroid treatments, with the aim of developing more effective therapies.
