The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $427,571 Project Grant (CFDA 93.859 - Biomedical Research and Research Training) to the University of Colorado-Denver to conduct research on the regulation of genome access and chromatin landscape dynamics. The project aims to uncover the molecular determinants of cellular identity and memory during development and in response to stimuli. Key focus areas include investigating the Polycomb pathway's role in maintaining cell...
This $391,250 five-year Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) will support research to uncover the mechanistic basis for how chromatin modifications recruit and activate the gene silencing enzymes Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1), Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), and DNA Methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1). The awardee, The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU), will utilize an...
This $1,737,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) supports the development of innovative single-cell genomics technologies for joint analysis of regulatory dynamics and transcriptional states. Key objectives include: Developing multiomics tools to measure rates of epigenomic changes (DNA methylation, demethylation, oxidative damage, DNA repair) and relate these to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) will support research to investigate the effects of polyamines on chromatin function and their impact on cell fate and chromatin homeostasis. The 5-year, $411,250 award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York will enable the principal investigator to explore how changes in intracellular and extracellular polyamines...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $229,840 to Brandeis University to investigate how heterochromatin, a specialized region of the genome, helps cells maintain epigenetic memory. The research aims to: (1) engineer synthetic H3K9me binding modules to test how compartmentalization influences epigenetic memory, (2) determine how compartmentalization buffers cells from stochastic noise, and (3) identify critical...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $294,647 Project Grant under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) to the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). The grant will fund a 4-year project from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028 to develop a theoretical, computational, and experimental framework for modeling epigenetic regulatory networks in human cells. The key objectives are to rapidly assemble and stably integrate libraries of...
