- This federal Project Grant award of $471,513 from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846) supports research to investigate the mechanisms underlying neuromuscular diseases where glycosylation is disrupted. The University of Maine System, through its Research & Sponsored Program division, will use a zebrafish model to study how loss of the dolichylphosphate mannose...
- The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) awarded a $439,791 Project Grant to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center on March 1, 2025 under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.846). The grant supports research to investigate the molecular mechanisms of myoblast fusion, which is essential for skeletal muscle development and regeneration. The research aims to understand the cellular and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $1,476,000.00 was provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) and is being performed by the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UT Southwestern) in Dallas, TX. The award will fund research to investigate the role of membraneless cellular compartments, known as biomolecular condensates, in neuromuscular diseases and other age-related disorders. The project aims to develop new...
- This Project Grant award of $522,714 from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), aims to investigate the role of stretch activation in mammalian skeletal muscle endurance. The research will focus on measuring the characteristics and mechanisms of stretch activation in mouse slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscle fibers, including determining the specific myosin...
- The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) awarded a $198,263 Project Grant under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.846) to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska. The research project aims to investigate the role of the protein Mitsugumin 53 (MG53) in preventing muscle atrophy during periods of disuse, which can contribute to age-related sarcopenia and frailty. The research will explore how...
- This federal Project Grant award of $175,500 from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), aims to investigate the role of alternative splicing in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD). The research project, performed by The Washington University, has three key objectives: 1) Characterize the interactions between the transcription factor DUX4 and RNA in...
- This $488,575 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), will support research to understand how myosin binding protein-C (MYBP-C) regulates skeletal muscle contraction and how mutations in the genes encoding slow and fast MYBP-C (MYBPC1 and MYBPC2) cause congenital skeletal muscle diseases. The research team at the University of Arizona will use...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $692,292.00 to the Children's Research Institute in Washington, D.C. to conduct research aimed at understanding the regulation of pediatric regenerative myogenesis and its implications for muscle disease. The key products and services to be delivered under this 5-year award...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), is funding research on the role of HOX-expressing interstitial cells in muscle growth, homeostasis, and regeneration. The $557,357 award, effective from March 14, 2025 through February 28, 2030, will support a University of Wisconsin-Madison research project investigating the ability of a...
- This $820,142 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research (CFDA 93.846) program. The grant aims to investigate the effects of early-life physical inactivity in mice on muscle quality, function, and frailty development in adulthood. Specifically, the research will examine the regulatory aspects of the extracellular matrix, muscle macrophages, and physical...
The project grant award from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846) provides $165,456.00 to support a 5-year research and career development program focused on advanced electrophysiological training to improve the care of patients with neuromuscular diseases. The project, led by Dr. Adam Deardorff at Wright State University, aims to study neuromuscular junction dysfunction in hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, a rare genetic disorder affecting muscle sodium channels. The research will integrate new training in translational neuromuscular physiology with clinically relevant hypothesis testing to give the early-career clinician-scientist the necessary skills to analyze the motor unit, generate effective research programs, and collaborate globally to advance patient care for those with neuromuscular diseases.
