- This Project Grant award, valued at $643,049.00, was provided 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 supports the development of a physiomimetic model of endometrioma, a type of endometriotic lesion, to study processes driving lesion initiation, ovarian stroma invasion, and persistence in a chronic inflammatory environment. The research aims to uncover...
- This Project Grant award of $674,095, provided by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to develop a novel optical imaging technology to directly observe and better understand multiple aspects of mammalian fertilization within the mouse fallopian tube in vivo. The primary products and services to be delivered under this 5-year award include: Integrating expertise in live...
- This Project Grant award from 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), aims to engineer a scaffold-free platform that better mimics ovarian biology to improve the developmental competence of gametes produced through ex vivo follicle culture. The $160,000 award to Northwestern University will support two specific aims: 1) identifying the ideal culture...
- The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has awarded a $423,985 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to the University of Illinois to develop a novel non-invasive monitoring system for detecting placental dysfunction and associated pregnancy complications. The funding will support research to utilize extracellular vesicles (EVs) circulating in maternal blood as biomarkers, using a "target recycling...
- This Project Grant award of $765,571 from 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), supports research on placental fatty acid metabolism in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
