This Project Grant award, valued at $172,499, was made by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The funding supports research to understand the role of histone deacetylases (HDACs) in zebrafish craniofacial development, as abnormal HDAC function is associated with various human craniofacial disorders. The key objectives are to investigate how individual HDACs, particularly HDAC1, interact with gene...

This federal Project Grant award of $149,294 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research to understand the role of the Zic2 transcription factor in regulating Hedgehog signaling and chromatin dynamics in the developing zebrafish forebrain. The University of Wisconsin-Madison is conducting this 1-year research project to identify Zic2 transcriptional targets and binding partners that may provide insights into the genetic basis of holoprosencephaly, a congenital malformation of the cerebral cortex. The research leverages innovative genomics and proteomics techniques in the zebrafish model system to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms by which Zic2 coordinates Hedgehog signaling and chromatin remodeling during early forebrain development.
