This federal Project Grant award of $413,690 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research to delineate the neuronal circuits and signaling pathways that regulate developmental timing in response to social cues in the model organism C. elegans. The research aims to identify how the nervous system non-autonomously regulates organismal growth and development, with the potential to alter...
This $565,826 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859), supports research at Duke University to elucidate the signaling and gene regulatory mechanisms that enable nematodes (C. elegans) to adapt to fluctuations in nutrient availability. The research aims to identify novel components, regulatory interactions, and effector mechanisms in the conserved network of tumor suppressors...
This $393,093 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) will support a research program to uncover the interplay between gene expression, cell morphology, and tissue-level mechanics in embryonic development. The research aims to develop an integrative computational framework to analyze spatio-temporal data on gene expression, cell morphometrics, and tissue mechanics...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under CFDA 93.859 - Biomedical Research and Research Training program provides $627,797 to Cornell University from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2030. The goal of the research is to delineate the mechanisms connecting endocytic and junctional complexes with epithelial pathology in C. elegans.

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 $180,500.00 to investigate the genetic regulation of sperm activation in the nematode C. elegans. The project aims to understand the molecular mechanisms by which phosphatases regulate this process, as well as identify additional genetic regulators of sperm development and function. The research will leverage unique...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $508,315 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to uncover the molecular mechanisms required for successful developmental progression from oocyte to embryo during the window of transcriptional silence in mammals. The overarching goal is to improve understanding of the earliest stages of mammalian development and the...
This federal Project Grant award of $651,596 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research by the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) to study the molecular mechanisms that coordinate gene expression, cell fate determination, and tissue growth during development. The key research objectives are to: 1) Determine the molecular structures and dynamics of three transcriptional complexes that regulate...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $324,239 Project Grant under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to Ora Biomedical, Inc., a biotechnology company in Seattle, WA. The purpose of this Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant is to develop "ELEGANTRY", a software and hardware infrastructure to improve rigor and reproducibility in invertebrate research using the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans (C....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $1,000,000 to the University of Michigan provides funding from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2028 to study the molecular mechanism of telomere maintenance in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans.
