This federal Project Grant award of $693,465.00 was provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855). The grant supports a research project led by Cornell University to construct a molecular atlas of T cell development in lymph nodes and determine how the cellular interactions and communication networks change during CD8+ T cell priming throughout childhood. The research aims to provide a new paradigm for T cell activation and an invaluable resource for understanding how immune responsiveness changes at various stages of life, with broad implications for designing more precise immunotherapies and developing more effective vaccines. This 5-year research project is expected to be completed by December 31, 2029.
