This federal Project Grant award of $551,250.00 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 research at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to uncover the molecular mechanisms regulating the formation of synaptic connections between neurons in the brain. The research aims to provide fundamental insights into the logic and mechanisms...
This $1,341,874 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 supports research focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms that control dendrite development, mechano-sensation exhibited by Drosophila dendritic arborization (DA) neurons, and mechanisms underlying dendrite and axon regeneration after injury. The primary...
This federal Project Grant award for $121,933, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA Program 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants, supports research to investigate the compartment-specific functional organization of synaptic inputs along the dendrites of layer 2/3 pyramidal neurons in behaving animals, as well as the mechanisms that shape this organization during learning. The award to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) will fund three specific aims:...
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 $146,816 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on learning-induced synaptic plasticity in corticospinal output neurons of the motor cortex. The research aims to simultaneously measure synaptic and spiking activity in corticospinal...
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 $258,342 Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke will support research into the mechanisms of dendritic tiling at Stanford University. Specifically, the grant will fund two specific aims: first, to test the hypothesis that activity-dependent mechanisms result in tiling of dendrites in C. elegans using live imaging of neighboring neurons labeled with distinct fluorescent reporters; and second, to assess the impact of...
This $880,000 federal Project Grant award 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 award will fund research at Northwestern University to investigate how the dynamic properties of mossy fiber synapses in the hippocampus contribute to an animal's ability to distinguish similar spatial representations, which is critical for episodic memory...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $126,956 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on generating new neurons in the aging adult brain. The key objectives are to: Use single-cell spatial transcriptomics technology to define the pathways for generating new neurons in aged neurogenic niches by transiently suppressing the PTBP1 protein. Extend this effort to test if glia-to-neuron conversion can...
