This $588,426 Project Grant award, provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310), aims to investigate how transcription factors efficiently locate and bind to specific DNA binding sites within the crowded nucleus of living cells. The project will employ advanced microscopy techniques to precisely track the 3D diffusion, DNA interactions, and target site discrimination of transcription factors involved in...
This $653,880 Project Grant awarded by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) under the Human Genome Research program (CFDA 93.172) supports the development of a high-content, image-based CRISPR screening platform to discover regulators of three-dimensional (3D) genome architecture across multiple length scales. The goal is to advance screening technology to enable large-scale, multi-omic analysis of the spatial organization of the genome, nucleome, and transcriptome. Key...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) supports research to visualize the mechanisms at the intersection of chromatin, transcription, and epigenetics. The $1,525,500 award to Harvard Medical School aims to develop a combinatorial biochemical and structural approach called "Visual Biochemistry" that uses a fully reconstituted chromatin transcription system and time-resolved single-particle...
This Project Grant award of $125,000 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research to understand the factors that shape the formation of structural variants in the human genome. The research aims to use computational and experimental methods to investigate the role of imperfect sequence homology, or microhomology, in double-strand break repair processes that can lead to structural...
This $131,338 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Human Genome Research Institute (CFDA 93.172 Human Genome Research) to the University of Washington. The overarching goal of this 2-year award is to identify the functional consequences of variations in nuclear architecture on transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation, and the role of this variation in human health and disease. Specifically, the award supports three research aims: 1) developing novel deep learning...
This $196,673 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, supports collaborative research at Yale University to develop a predictive framework for understanding how the physical microenvironment influences 3D genome organization and gene expression. The project will integrate super-resolution microscopy, genomics, biophysical modeling, and machine learning to decode the relationship between the...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director awarded $2,833,200 under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to Stanford University from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025. This Project Grant will support research exploring the structural flexibility of nucleosomes and its role in epigenetic regulation. The grantee will develop conformation-specific nanobodies to probe alternative states of nucleosomes using NMR, HDX-MS, and cryo-EM techniques. They will also...
The Broad Institute, Inc. was awarded a $158,000 Project Grant by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support (CFDA 93.310) program. The award will support the establishment of foundational tools and datasets to investigate the function of the NSD1 gene in neural development. Specifically, the project will generate novel isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models of NSD1 haploinsufficiency and assess the dysregulation of histone H3 lysine 36...
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) awarded a $504,949 Project Grant (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) to the University of Washington to develop advanced machine learning models that integrate Hi-C chromatin contact data with other genomics data types. The project aims to: 1) Extend the SAGITTARIUS model to analyze Hi-C time-series data and study the dynamic interplay between gene expression and chromatin structure during biological processes; 2) Develop a graph-based...
This federal Project Grant award of $142,065 from the National Human Genome Research Institute (CFDA 93.172 - Human Genome Research) supports the development of computational frameworks to model the impact of external signals on a cell's internal transcription factor activity. The key products and services to be delivered under this award include: Computational methods to more accurately deconvolve cell type fractions and gene expression from bulk RNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics data. A...
