This $435,827 Project Grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the CFDA 93.394 Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research program supports research conducted by New York University (NYU) School of Medicine to develop deep learning methods for analyzing mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) data. The goal is to make MSI data more accessible to existing machine learning workflows by expanding the dimensionality of the data structure to treat each metabolite or lipid as an individual "color...
This $407,113 Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Biology Research program (CFDA 93.396) supports the development of a new bio-orthogonal mid-infrared photothermal (MIP) imaging approach for studying cancer cell metabolism. The award to Trustees of Boston University will fund three key research efforts over a 3-year period from September 2024 to August 2027: Building a library of nitrile-based molecular probes to sense important metabolic events in cancer cells....
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) awarded a $201,172 Project Grant under the Cancer Research Manpower (CFDA 93.398) program to Duke University. The grant aims to develop a non-invasive biomarker for longitudinal molecular profiling of glioblastoma, an aggressive and lethal brain tumor. The research project will utilize cell-free DNA methylation patterns to overcome limitations of current diagnostic approaches that rely on invasive surgical procedures. The grant runs from August 1, 2024 to July...

This $2,020,098 Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.394 - Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research) aims to develop an innovative X-ray dual-energy cone-beam microCT (DECB microCT) imaging system for intraoperative quantitative analysis of breast lumpectomy specimens. The objective is to enhance the contrast between breast cancer and normal fibroglandular tissue, enabling improved identification of positive surgical margins during breast-conserving surgery. Key project...
This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.395 - Cancer Treatment Research) provides $655,306 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct research on leveraging reactive metabolite generation as a novel therapeutic strategy for patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase-mutant (IDHm) gliomas, a deadly form of brain cancer. The key objectives of this 5-year project are to: 1) determine if the combination of a brain-penetrant glyoxalase 1...

This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), under the Cancer Detection and Diagnosis Research program (CFDA 93.394), is for a research project titled "Single-Scan, Multi-Contrast Imaging of Glucose Metabolism in Patients with Glioblastoma." The $677,801 award, effective January 2, 2025 through December 31, 2029, will fund research at Yale University to develop a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based metabolic imaging technique called Deuterium Metabolic Imaging (DMI) to quickly characterize disease progression in glioblastoma, the most aggressive form of brain cancer. The project aims to validate the specificity of DMI for detecting active tumor, establish the repeatability of glucose DMI measurements, and demonstrate the use of DMI to detect true disease progression in a clinical setting. Successful completion of these aims could establish DMI as a robust, non-invasive metabolic imaging method that can be integrated into standard MRI protocols to improve glioblastoma management.
