- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under CFDA Program 93.859 Biomedical Research and Research Training, provides $406,250.00 to the University of Massachusetts to develop sophisticated mathematical models, particularly using partial differential equations (PDEs), to investigate the spatial interactions between cells and molecules within tissues. The models aim to capture tissue-specific biochemical and biomechanical characteristics to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $1,113,750.00 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) will support the University of Nebraska at Omaha's (UNO) Center for Research in Human Movement Variability (MOVCENTR). The goal is to solidify and optimize the research programs and infrastructure built in prior COBRE (Center of Biomedical Research Excellence) phases in order to advance UNO's leadership in...
- This Project Grant award of $210,090.00 was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training federal grant program (CFDA 93.859). The award supports a research and training program at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) focused on increasing the number of graduate students in biomedical sciences and implementing improved training mechanisms. Key elements of the program include modernizing the...
- The University of Arkansas, Fayetteville Division, is the recipient of a $436,326 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The project, titled "DISSECTING CRYPTIC GENETIC VARIATION UNDERLYING COMPLEX TRAITS IN DROSOPHILA", aims to use the Drosophila model organism to reveal cryptic genetic variation and uncover novel gene-gene and gene-environment interactions...
- The federal Project Grant award of $2,624,974 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) aims to establish the Balance and Auditory Research Center (BARC) at the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC). The key objectives are to: (1) foster a collaborative research environment for innovative vestibular and auditory neuroscience research; (2) develop research capacity through new faculty...
- The federal Project Grant award, valued at $743,287.00 and funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports a multi-disciplinary research effort to uncover novel insights into endocervical mucus secretion. The primary goal of this 5-year project, which began on May 20, 2025, is to identify the cells and pathways that influence mucus changes in response to hormonal...
This Project Grant award of $1,825,150 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) supports the establishment of the Maternal and Reproductive Community Health Excellence (MARCH) Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS). The primary objectives are to build the infrastructure and implement a mentoring/faculty development program to nurture new investigators focused on addressing maternal and reproductive health disparities in rural Arkansas communities. Key components include a Digital Health Core to leverage digital resources for rural research, and a Stakeholder/Community Engagement and Dissemination (SUCCEED) Core to facilitate stakeholder engagement. The award is effective from August 12, 2025 through May 31, 2030.
