This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund research at the University of Maryland, College Park to study the biophysical properties of lymph nodes and their impact on immune cell function during the aging process. The $419,170 award, running from August 2024 to July 2026, will utilize advanced microscopy techniques like multiple particle tracking and Brillouin microscopy to characterize changes in the elastic and viscous moduli, pore...
This $351,750 project grant was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to Yale University. The project aims to elucidate the role of the NLRX1 protein in altering T cell immunity during the aging process. Specifically, the research will investigate the mechanism by which decreased NLRX1 expression augments age-associated changes in T cells, including expansion of memory T cells, decreased naive T cell survival, and...
