This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under CFDA 93.853 Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders will support research to understand the mechanisms underlying brain-immune interactions at the blood-brain barrier. The overarching goal is to generate novel targets for immunotherapy in neuroinflammatory conditions. The $230,580 award to Brigham & Women's Hospital, a subsidiary of Partners Healthcare System Incorporated, will fund an innovative approach combining genetic manipulation of the brain vascular endothelium, creating an atlas of immune signaling at the blood-brain barrier, and validation in human tissue. This project aims to elucidate how inflammatory signals from the brain parenchyma are translated across the blood-brain barrier, and where along the brain vasculature these immune interactions occur. The award has an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2029.
