This Project Grant award, valued at $509,145.00 and provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program, supports research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to understand the mechanisms of neurodegeneration in the inferior olivary nucleus. The key objectives are to define the relationship between membrane excitability and olivary degeneration, elucidate the intrinsic and extrinsic contributions to olivary dysfunction, and determine the basis for increased intrinsic excitability in hypertrophic olivary degeneration. This research leverages a mouse model of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 and combines in vivo electrophysiology, molecular studies, and behavioral analyses to investigate the convergent mechanisms of olivary neuron degeneration. The project has a performance period from July 1, 2024 to May 31, 2029. Additionally, a sub-award of this grant provides the University of Minnesota with SCA1 transgenic mouse models to support the investigation of intrinsic versus extrinsic factors in olivary degeneration.
