- This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), CFDA 93.865 Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program, aims to address the high rate of hypocalcemia (low blood calcium) following thyroidectomy (thyroid gland removal) in the pediatric population. The $1,000,028 award to Vanderbilt University will fund research to characterize the near-infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) properties of parathyroid glands...
- The U.S. National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $766,982 Project Grant to Carnegie Mellon University under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The project aims to develop and validate a novel computational framework to simulate uteroplacental hemodynamics and placentation, with the goal of identifying metrics for early detection of pregnancy complications related to abnormal placental formation. This research...
- This $161,500 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The grant is intended to establish basic science-clinical collaborations to understand the molecular mechanisms of heterotaxy, a severe form of congenital heart disease that affects 3-4% of patients with congenital heart defects. The funding will support research at the University of Virginia to...
- The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $687,541 Project Grant to Duke University on September 4, 2025 under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research (CFDA 93.865) federal grant program. The grant aims to develop recommendations for improving institutional processes for adapting evidence-based healthcare standards to comply with changes in state reproductive health laws. The project will combine qualitative data from...
- The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $461,780 R21 project grant (CFDA 93.865: Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) on August 1, 2023 to investigate the feasibility of a clinical-scale, anticoagulation-free artificial placenta device. The project aims to overcome key barriers to the clinical translation of artificial placenta technology, which is designed to simulate...
- This federal Project Grant award, funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), is supporting research on the role of decidual extracellular vesicles in mediating placental insufficiency. The $654,671 award, which commenced on August 1, 2025 and is scheduled for completion by April 30, 2030, is being conducted by the awardee, Yale University. The key...
- The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $187,500 Project Grant on August 11, 2025 to the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Louisiana. The grant, titled "BEYOND FOLATE - A SUPPLEMENTATION STRATEGY TO PREVENT NEURAL TUBE DEFECTS", falls under the NICHD's Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The project aims to investigate a novel nutritional approach to prevent neural tube...
- The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $595,864 Project Grant to the Magee-Womens Research Institute and Foundation in Pittsburgh, PA, effective August 15, 2025 and scheduled for completion on May 31, 2030. The grant, awarded under the NICHD's Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports research to elucidate the role of hyaluronan, a key extracellular matrix component, in the development...
- This $178,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) supports research to develop an early life phenotyping framework for very preterm infants. The research aims to create 'perinatal phenotypes' by integrating variables such as reason for preterm birth, intrapartum care, and neonatal presentation, and then determine how these phenotypes contribute to...
The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), awarded a $590,565 Project Grant to Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) to develop a biomimetic human ductus arteriosus (DA) construct. The goal is to leverage bioengineering and vascular physiology technologies to create a human DA model that can accurately mimic the response of native vessels to biomechanical and pharmacological stimuli. This research aims to address the significant challenge of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a condition affecting 0.05-0.2% of term infants and up to 80% of critically ill premature infants, for which current pharmacological treatments have limited effectiveness and significant side effects. The award has an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2030.
