This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), will support research to establish a novel zebrafish model of syndromic craniosynostosis. The $313,000 award to Emory University will enable comprehensive phenotypic, mechanistic, and genetic analyses of the craniosynostosis mutant zebrafish to better understand the underlying pathological mechanisms. The research aims to identify...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $315,000 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) from July 2025 to July 2027. The funding supports research to investigate the role of distinct neural crest cell populations in the development and maintenance of cranial sutures, and explore potential biological therapeutics to resolve premature suture fusion...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121), provides $1,608,956 to The Regents of the University of California, operating as Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, to conduct research on human midface development and genetic factors underlying craniofacial birth defects. The key activities include: Generating a single-cell multimodal atlas of human craniofacial...
The National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) has awarded a $148,176 Project Grant under the Oral Diseases and Disorders Research program (CFDA 93.121) to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley.
