This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under CFDA Program 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research provides $487,559 to Yale University to conduct research on the molecular biophysics and systems morphogenesis in early spinal column development. The key research objectives are to quantify the molecular dynamics of single integrin heterodimers, which mediate cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion, in the neural...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the federal Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $294,408 to the University of Oregon to conduct research on how cell signaling mechanisms facilitate skeletal patterning during zebrafish fin regeneration. The research aims to identify Sonic Hedgehog signaling target genes and associated cell behaviors that promote the splitting of...
This $213,945 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) will support the development of an in vitro human spinal neural tube model to study the genetic and environmental factors contributing to the etiology of spina bifida. The project will utilize human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) to create 3D spinal neural tube organoids and a bioengineered...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $270,000.00 to The Morgridge Institute for Research, Inc. to fund research on spinal cord regeneration in zebrafish. The goal of the research is to elucidate the cell state changes and molecular mechanisms that enable or inhibit the remarkable regenerative capacity observed in zebrafish spinal cords...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,708,120.00 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) is supporting research to develop less invasive intervention strategies for the in utero repair of spina bifida. The key objectives are to: 1) Determine the therapeutic efficacy of amniotic fluid-based cell free strategies to modulate the in utero environment and reduce the severity of...
This $145,642 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports a research project focused on quantifying the contribution of supracellular actomyosin networks during mouse neural tube closure. The project aims to: 1) Quantify key features of the actomyosin networks in the mouse neural tube, including protein levels, actomyosin cable orientation, and cellular morphologies, through...
The University of Oregon (UO) received a Project Grant award of $405,625 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program. The goal of this 2-year project is to identify the genes that coordinate the development of both electrical and chemical synapses in the vertebrate nervous system, using the zebrafish Mauthner circuit as a model system....
This $149,936 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to The Trustees of Mount Holyoke College supports research to understand the role of serotonin signaling in regulating axon morphology, connectivity, and behavior in fruit flies. The key objectives are to: 1) determine the intracellular mechanisms by which the serotonin receptor 5-HT1A autoregulates serotonergic axon outgrowth, 2) examine how this autoregulation shapes...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $193,664 in funding over approximately 18 months to support research and training at the University of Oregon focused on understanding the mechanisms of cell state transitions that enable organ size control during zebrafish fin regeneration. The research aims to use computational modeling, quantitative imaging, and single-cell...
This $111,307 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research at the University of Pittsburgh to investigate cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) serotonin and adenosine as biomarkers for detecting secondary injuries in traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. The research aims to test the hypotheses that: 1) ischemic cord injuries increase CSF serotonin levels, 2) CSF adenosine...
