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, will fund research to investigate the developmental transition of neural stem cell niches in the human brain. The $1,180,687 award, effective August 1, 2025 through July 31, 2033, will be provided to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to characterize the different neural stem cell and progenitor populations involved in the production of cortical inhibitory interneurons during the transition from prenatal to postnatal stages of human brain development. The research aims to elucidate how inhibitory interneuron production is amplified to satisfy the needs of the greatly expanded human neocortex, which could lead to novel approaches for treating neurological disorders and identifying progenitor cells linked to tumor formation.
