This Project Grant award from 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, will fund research to understand human brain development and the origins of neurodevelopmental diseases. The $1,008,977 award, with a performance period from December 2024 to November 2032, will support the study of primary human brain tissue and human stem cell-derived in...
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $419,038 Project Grant under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) to the University of North Dakota (UND). The funding supports the development of a miniature selective plane illumination fluorescence microscope for high-resolution volumetric imaging in freely behaving mice. This transformative machine learning-augmented microscopy platform aims to enable in...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $1,282,359.00 to support research on the regulation of generation and functions of intermediate progenitors in neural stem cell lineages. The 5-year project, starting on July 1, 2024 and running through May 31, 2029, will be conducted by the Regents of the University of Michigan....
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $2,503,949.00 in funding to Rockefeller University for a research project titled "Applying RNA Logic in Space and Time to Neurologic Disease". The project aims to develop new techniques and concepts for discovering therapeutic targets for neurological diseases...
This Project Grant award from 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, provides $221,120.00 to the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston to investigate the potential of adult central nervous system endothelial cells to express developmental genes and guide neural progenitor migration and survival for improved neurological...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $147,656.00 to Duke University for research investigating human-specific splicing regulation in neurogenesis and disease. The research aims to define a novel mechanism of action for human-specific non-coding genome regions in regulating post-transcriptional RNA processing...
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $598,952 Project Grant (CFDA 93.853) to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to develop a novel human stem cell-derived multi-cellular model for studying developmental processes underlying spinal cord midline crossing of axons. The research aims to generate and characterize human neural organoids that resemble the floor plate and dorsal spinal cord, then assemble them bilaterally to...
The federal Project Grant award R01NS139561 for $1,270,816 was 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) program. The grant supports a research project at Yale University to uncover the gene regulatory networks that control the development and function of radial glia, the stem cells of the human brain, using cortical organoids, single-cell CRISPR screens,...
This Project Grant award from 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, provides $270,434 to The Trustees of Princeton University to investigate the role of spatiotemporal regulation of mRNA in neuronal remodeling during morphogenesis. The research will leverage Drosophila mushroom body and dendritic arborization neurons as models to...
This $135,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, supports the "The NeuroCity Initiative: Empowering Underrepresented Scholars to Pursue Careers in Neuroscience" program. This initiative, hosted by the University of Rochester, provides undergraduate students from the City University of New York (CUNY) system with...
