The Defense Health Agency awarded a $622,008 project grant to the Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University, under the Military Medical Research and Development (CFDA 12.420) federal grant program. The grant, awarded on November 1, 2024, with a completion date of October 31, 2026, supports research on "The SAGA Complex as an Essential Regulator of Abnormal Transcription Through De Novo DNA Topology Interactions in Multiple Myeloma." This project grant aims to advance scientific understanding and develop innovative solutions in the field of multiple myeloma, a type of blood cancer, by exploring the role of the SAGA complex in regulating abnormal gene transcription. As a prominent public research university with extensive expertise across biomedical sciences and medical research, Indiana University will leverage its capabilities to conduct this federally-funded research initiative.
