This $630,414 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (CFDA 93.853) supports research at Northwestern University to investigate the role of sodium channel dysfunction in altered brain development. The research aims to phenotype the prenatal and postnatal impacts of pathogenic variants in the SCN2A and SCN3A sodium channel subtypes, using a ferret model system to study the biological basis of related neurological disorders. The award, spanning from August 2025 to July 2030, will establish early pathological origins of sodium channel diseases to inform potential interventions prior to irreversible brain changes.
