The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $136,916 Project Grant (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) to the Louisiana State University Agricultural Center to develop a computational model for predicting the morphology, patterning, and strength of regenerated bone in small animal models of limb regeneration. The project aims to create new tools to better evaluate the structural quality and function of regenerated bone, which is critical for advancing limb regeneration treatments and improving prosthesis performance. The LSU Agricultural Center will build on its expertise in small animal models of bone regeneration, using high-resolution micro-CT imaging and finite element analysis to spatiotemporally simulate bone formation and strength. The project results will help improve the rigor of the digit regeneration model in mice and enhance the understanding of limb regeneration treatment outcomes and methods. This award has an initial period of performance from August 15, 2023 to August 14, 2025.
