This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research Program (CFDA 93.855) provides $247,236 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to investigate the expansion and function of long-lived effector CD8 T cells in the mature memory compartment. The research aims to determine the proinflammatory cytokines that support the formation and persistence of this T cell population, as well as how...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $657,673 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to conduct research on non-deletional CD8+ T cell tolerance. The research aims to define the gene regulation that inhibits self-reactive CD8+ T cells and classify different types of self-reactive CD8+ T cell clones, in order to understand which tolerance...
This Federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) provides $162,486 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to investigate the local and systemic coordination of antiviral immunity by tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells in the skin. The project aims to determine whether CD8 tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) can orchestrate immune cell responses in the skin and influence distal immunity....
This federal Project Grant award of $219,456 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) supports research to understand how sterile inflammation at the maternal-fetal interface impacts the developing fetal immune system in a non-human primate model. The research aims to test the hypotheses that 1) injecting the clotting agent Tisseel into the maternal-fetal interface leads to placental inflammation, and 2) this...
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $1,112,004 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as the Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania. The grant, effective September 1, 2024 through July 31, 2029, will support research to define the mechanistic features of Interleukin-27 (IL-27) signaling at the maternal-fetal interface that...
This Project Grant award of $857,346 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) supports research by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center to study metabolite- and cytokine-mediated signals that control human CD8 T cell responses in tissues. The research aims to define the balance of activating and inhibitory signals present in healthy and acutely infected human tissues, which is relevant to understanding immune...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) provides $3,194,992 to the University of California, San Diego (UC San Diego) to conduct research on the roles and regulation of tissue-resident CD8 T cells during a persistent viral infection. The key objectives are to: (1) evaluate the role of tissue-resident CD8 T cells in intestinal hyper-permeability and colitis during a sustained viral...
This Project Grant award, valued at $242,310.00, was provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.855). The grant supports research conducted by Weill Medical College of Cornell University to investigate how the early-life intestinal microbiome and maternal antibodies influence the trafficking of commensal microbes to the thymus, which is critical for the development of the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) provides $693,465 to Cornell University over a period from January 2025 to December 2029. The funding supports a research project titled "Mapping Infant and Adult T Cell Immunity" that aims to construct a molecular atlas of T cell development in lymph nodes and determine how cellular interactions and communication networks change during CD8+ T...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $2,863,501.00 over a 4-year period starting August 1, 2025 to conduct research on the mechanisms of CD4 T cell help to myeloid cells in tuberculosis (TB). The research aims to define how CD4 T cells, through direct cell-cell contact and indirect pathways, activate myeloid cells to control intracellular Mycobacterium...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $2,999,774 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to conduct research focused on understanding how maternal microbial exposure fundamentally shapes the CD8 T cell population at the maternal-fetal interface. The key objectives are to investigate the regulation of CD8 T cell tolerance and host immune defense against pathogens at this critical interface, utilizing innovative natural microbial exposure models as well as human tissue samples. The research aims to gain mechanistic insights into the tissue-localized CD8 T cell types, receptors, and specificity, along with identifying beneficial and pathogenic host factors that maintain immune tolerance while providing protection against microbial infections. The project period runs from July 2025 through June 2029.
