This $440,275 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program will support research to systematically discover upstream regulators of the OLIG2 transcription factor, which plays a central role in the myelination of the central nervous system (CNS) by oligodendrocytes. The 2-year project aims to determine the in vivo role of the MEF2D transcription factor in regulating OLIG2 expression and oligodendrocyte myelination, as well as expand the search for additional upstream regulators of OLIG2. The award was granted to the Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY), which will serve as the fiscal agent and oversee the project's administration and implementation.
