- The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) awarded a $550,417 Project Grant under the Alcohol Research Programs (CFDA 93.273) to the University of Texas at Austin. The grant, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports research to investigate how heavy alcohol exposure in aging individuals leads to impaired microglia function, neurodegeneration, and cognitive deficits. The study aims to determine whether dysregulated neuroimmune and microglia responses are...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (CFDA 93.273 - Alcohol Research Programs) provides $440,566 to Yale University to advance the treatment of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). The primary objective is to uncover therapeutic targets and develop effective ALD treatments, with a focus on the methyltransferase-like (METTL) protein family, notably METTL7A, which is highly expressed in ALD patients. The research utilizes cutting-edge technology...
