The University of Wisconsin-Madison received a $614,993 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), effective June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2031. The award funds a translational research project investigating neuroplastic mechanisms of dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) following stroke, with specific focus on how aging affects swallowing recovery and the efficacy of tongue exercise-based interventions. The research utilizes a rat model to examine multilevel plastic changes in the corticobulbar tract and cranial muscles that support swallowing function following unihemispheric stroke. The project addresses a critical clinical gap in post-stroke rehabilitation by advancing understanding of swallowing recovery mechanisms beyond existing knowledge of corticospinal tract plasticity. Rather than relying solely on compensatory strategies, the research aims to develop evidence-based active treatments for dysphagia by quantifying muscular, brainstem, and cortical mechanisms of exercise-induced plasticity. Findings from this five-year investigation are intended to improve swallowing rehabilitation strategies for stroke patients, particularly older populations in whom stroke most commonly occurs, with potential applications to clinical interventions targeting lingual weakness associated with post-stroke dysphagia.Federal Grant Award Summary
