This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) provides $1,188,266 to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to conduct research on the regulation of the germ cell-to-maternal transition. The funded project aims to uncover how this critical developmental transition is regulated, focusing on understanding the changes in gene expression, targeting of germ cell-specific genes for...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $508,315 Project Grant (CFDA 93.859 - Biomedical Research and Research Training) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to investigate the molecular mechanisms required for successful developmental progression from oocyte to embryo during a critical window of transcriptional silence in mammals. The overarching goal is to uncover post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms, such as mRNA poly(A) tail dynamics, that...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) provides $483,640 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to determine the roles of autophagy in gametogenesis in S. cerevisiae. The funded research aims to investigate three key areas: 1) how autophagy promotes gametogenesis, 2) how gametogenesis regulates autophagy, and 3) how stresses affect autophagy and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), provides $434,679 to Lehigh University from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2030 to conduct research on nuclear envelope dynamics in meiotic quality control. The research aims to elucidate how the oocyte nuclear envelope integrates mechanical and chemical signals to regulate quality control in developing oocytes, with a focus on the...
This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $125,814 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to quantify germ cell lineage dynamics during mammalian oogenesis. The goal is to characterize germ cell selection and determine the functional importance of early germ cell heterogeneity for shaping...
This $625,898 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop spatially-informed, cell-specific metabolic models of the ovary to identify novel biomarkers associated with the onset and duration of the menopause transition. The key products and services to be delivered include: Generation of spatially-informed, cell-specific, multicellular genome-scale metabolic models (GMMs) of the ovary using single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $380,070 Project Grant under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to investigate the cellular mechanisms of meiotic chromosome pairing. The 4-year project, starting on Jul 1, 2025 and ending on Mar 31, 2029, will use live-cell imaging and genetic manipulation in budding yeast to study how active telomere-led motions and nuclear...
This Project Grant award, valued at $423,036.00, was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The award supports research to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the biogenesis and function of pachytene piRNAs, a unique class of small RNAs found in mammalian germ cells. The research aims to elucidate how regulatory motifs direct piwi proteins to engage in piRNA biogenesis,...
This federal Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), provides $221,448 to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) to study the role of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in oogenesis, the process of female gamete (oocyte) production. The research aims to identify mechanisms that promote oocyte health and quality,...
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...
