The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $619,304.36 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) to conduct research on mapping and predicting the effects of transcription factor dosage on craniofacial morphology and disease. The project aims to develop tools to precisely modulate the dosage of craniofacial transcription factors in...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will support research to establish a novel zebrafish model of syndromic craniosynostosis. The $313,000 award to Emory University will enable comprehensive phenotypic, mechanistic, and genetic analyses of the craniosynostosis mutant zebrafish to better understand the underlying pathological mechanisms. The research aims to identify...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research (CFDA 93.121) program, provides $821,236.30 to The University of Kentucky Research Foundation over a project period from September 16, 2024 to August 31, 2027. The grant supports research to investigate how SOXE transcription factors contribute to the specialization of neural crest cells, which are critical for proper craniofacial development. The...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) has awarded a $148,176 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley. The funding will support research to uncover novel gene regulatory networks underlying craniofacial development and specialization in pupfish species. The project aims to leverage the unique evolutionary model of Cyprinodon pupfishes on San Salvador Island to...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $646,212 to support research on the role of primary cilia and C2CD3 in craniofacial skeletogenesis. The research aims to determine how mutations in the C2CD3 gene, which cause the human ciliopathy Oral-Facial-Digital Syndrome 14 (OFD14), impact skeletal differentiation, the association between the centriole and actin...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), part of the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $493,458 to support research on the role of ARID1 proteins in regulating the development and differentiation of cranial neural crest cells. The 5-year award, effective from June 16, 2025 to March 31, 2030, will be conducted by the Childrens Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The research aims to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $503,648 to The University of Iowa to conduct research on identifying transcriptional interplay between skin and oral ectoderm during mandibular patterning.

This Project Grant award of $804,478 from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will support research to generate a single-cell atlas of human craniofacial development and use evolutionary analysis to identify enhancers critical for midface development. The goal is to improve understanding of the genetic basis of midface defects, including clefts of the lip and palate, which can substantially...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) awarded a $600,029 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The grant, which runs from March 10, 2025 to February 28, 2030, supports research to elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which Ras/MAPK signaling dysregulation causes abnormal enamel formation and craniofacial development. The research aims to determine how Ras signaling disruption...
This Project Grant from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), part of the Department of Health and Human Services, will fund research into the genetic basis of human skeletal facial morphology through July 2025. Provided under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), the $936,510 in funding will support two key aims. First, the awardee will enhance current mesh landmarking procedures for craniofacial bone by developing a dense quasi-landmark...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $521,209.45 to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) to delineate the role of the transcriptional repressor ZEB2 in human neural crest cell formation and craniofacial pathology. The research aims to examine ZEB2's modular functionality in regulating TGFβ signaling during normal human cranial neural crest cell formation, establish induced pluripotent stem cells from Mowat-Wilson Syndrome patients to investigate the transcriptomic and epigenetic misregulation, and interrogate the role of ZEB2 in wild-type and Mowat-Wilson Syndrome human tooth formation using a neural crest cell-based tooth organoid model. The award has an initial project period from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2027.
