The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $231,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to The University of Kentucky Research Foundation to evaluate the causes of failure to thrive in patients with a Noonan-like syndrome (NSLH). The grant will fund the use of a zebrafish model to investigate how mutations in the SHOC2 gene, found in NSLH patients, affect early gastrointestinal development and metabolism. The...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,204,928 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 investigate the mechanisms by which rare genetic variants in regulatory enhancer regions can cause ectopic gene expression and developmental disorders, using limb malformations as a model. The key objectives of the award are to: 1) characterize the chromatin and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $195,896 to the University of Oregon to support research on the role of sonic hedgehog signaling in skeletal patterning during zebrafish fin regeneration.
