The research project seeks to better understand the role of astrocytes, a type of glial cell in the central nervous system,...
- 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 $361,975 to support research focused on developing chemical strategies for imaging and manipulating astrocytes in the brain. The project aims to expand the capabilities of an astrocyte-targeting chemical tag to enable direct visualization and modulation of astrocyte...
- This $372,667 federal Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, with a performance period from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028. The grant supports a collaborative research project between U.S. and French researchers to study how astrocytes, a type of brain cell, contribute to neural dynamics and information processing in the brain. The project combines computational modeling and experimental...
- This federal Project Grant award of $141,102 was provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the 21st Century Cures Act - Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative program (CFDA 93.372). The award supports research by New York University to study the role of astrocyte networks in facilitating neuroplasticity. Key objectives include mapping functional astrocyte networks across the brain using a novel biotinylation...
- This $427,625 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866). The grant was awarded to The Washington University in St. Louis to support research evaluating novel transcription factors that regulate astrocyte identity, reactivity, and their roles in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). The research aims to systematically evaluate 10 candidate transcription factors identified...
- This federal Project Grant award of $446,126 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, aims to develop a new bioassay to study astrocyte borders and profile their functional states in the context of diverse non-neural cell populations. The key objectives are to optimize the bioassay by combining injectable cellulose-based hydrogels with viral vectors to...
This $488,232 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, is funding research by The Washington University to explore the mechanisms by which astrocytes, a type of glial cell, support the metabolic needs of neighboring neurons in the brain. The 5-year project aims to investigate the regulation of intracellular and intercellular mitochondrial transport in astrocytes, and how this process is influenced by neuronal activity, with the goal of advancing understanding of brain function and neurodegenerative disease. The award commenced on August 1, 2025 and is scheduled for completion on July 31, 2030.
