This 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, provides $227,500 to the Children's Research Institute in Washington, D.C. to conduct a randomized pre-clinical trial examining the use of the drug ethosuximide to protect thalamic neurons and regulate consciousness in a rodent model of cardiac arrest. The goal is to determine if ethosuximide can prevent bursting activity and degeneration of thalamic neurons, which are critical for regulating consciousness, in order to improve recovery and neurological outcomes for cardiac arrest survivors experiencing disorders of consciousness such as coma. The award has a project period from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027.
