The U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $802,500 Cooperative Agreement grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The grant supports the construction of a multi-scale 3D AI-powered map of genetic factors and cellular interactions driving normal and aberrant lung development in childhood interstitial lung disease (CHILD). The project will leverage single-cell and spatial...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI, CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) totaling $827,753 aims to develop new computational methods for systems genetic analysis of the rare polygenic disorder idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The project will pursue three key strategies: (1) pleiotropy-informed SNP association tests, (2) polygenic risk scores to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $2,070,206 to Ann & Robert H Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago to conduct research on endotypes of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in premature infants. The research aims to leverage existing genetic and longitudinal clinical data from approximately 2,000 former premature children to characterize the long-term...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under CFDA Program 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research, will provide $267,000 to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027. The goal of this project is to identify shared genetic mechanisms that disrupt both heart and brain development in individuals with congenital heart disease (CHD) and neurodevelopmental delays (NDD). The...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $657,308 to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to conduct research on the CXCL12 signaling axis and its role in pulmonary arterial heterogeneity, development, and disease. The key objectives of this 12-month project are to: 1) define the spatiotemporal role of CXCL12 signaling in pulmonary vascular development, 2)...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $167,940 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) with a project period from Sep 20, 2024 to Aug 31, 2029. The grant aims to develop a novel mouse model of flow-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) that better represents the physiological conditions observed in patients with congenital heart disease. Additionally, the project...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $1,057,973 Project Grant under CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct research on modeling fetal lung development in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The research aims to investigate the role of the YAP/TAZ mechanosensing pathway in CDH lung hypoplasia using mouse models, human lung organoids, and large animal fetal models. The research teams led by Shaun Kunisaki, Jason...
This $392,882 Project Grant, awarded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), will support research by Dr. Brandon Smith at The Johns Hopkins University to address racial disparities in chronic lung disease (CLD) for preterm infants. The key objectives are to: 1) characterize medical and social determinant profiles of preterm infants with CLD and identify high-risk groups, 2) describe the lived experiences of...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $123,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to the University of Chicago to investigate the role of the Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway in regulating progenitor cell differentiation during lung development and disease. The 2-year grant, which runs from February 2025 to November 2026, aims to: 1) decipher HH's temporal control over differentiation in mouse lungs, 2) characterize HH-receiving cell...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research provides $750,162 to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to conduct research aimed at understanding the role of lymphatic dysfunction in the development of post-lung transplant bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a serious complication. The research project will use murine models to investigate the mechanisms of lymphatic vascular function after...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $844,386 to support research on the genetic landscape of childhood interstitial and diffuse lung diseases (CHILD). The key objectives are to: 1) Define molecular profiles of 300 CHILD lung biopsy samples to identify patient clusters with similar underlying causes, 2) Analyze whole exome sequence data from 400 children with unexplained lung disease to map new CHILD-causing genes, and 3) Characterize the clinical spectrum associated with newly discovered CHILD genes. This comprehensive, integrative genomics research aims to provide novel insights into CHILD pathobiology and inform the development of targeted therapies for these rare and burdensome pediatric lung disorders. The award period runs from August 2024 to July 2028 and is led by the Children's Hospital Corporation (dba Boston Children's Hospital), a premier pediatric medical research institution.
