This 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), provides $598,583 to North Carolina State University to conduct research on modeling stomach curvature and asymmetry. The research aims to integrate in vivo experiments using frog embryos and computational modeling to determine the individual and combined roles of different tissue-level asymmetries in generating normal stomach curvature, as well as understand the pathogenesis of left-right defects in the stomach. The award has a performance period from June 1, 2025 to February 28, 2030 and is expected to yield multilevel insights into the cell- and tissue-level mechanisms underlying organ laterality. The findings will have implications for understanding the emergence of complex left-right asymmetries in other organs.
