- This Project Grant award, valued at $647,866.00 and provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), supports research to investigate the epigenetic regulation of nuclear cGAS activity and its role in aging-related inflammation. The key objective is to understand how aging-related changes in histone acetylation patterns and associated chromatin-binding proteins, such as BRD4, activate the innate immune sensor cGAS and contribute to chronic...
- This Project Grant award of $506,404.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate mechanisms of local and global epigenetic changes that drive senescence and aging-associated phenotypes. Key research objectives include: Examining how enhancers are rewired during senescence and aging, focusing on large enhancer communities or "cliques" and identifying transcription factors that drive their formation....
- This federal Project Grant award of $291,913 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Virscio, Inc., a for-profit research company located in Connecticut. The award is focused on developing epigenetic and senescent biomarkers using non-human primate tissues to advance the understanding of biological aging processes and potential anti-aging strategies. The project aims to create minimally invasive biomarker tools, such as blood and skin-based assays,...
- This $1,081,439 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to uncover the biochemical mechanisms behind cellular aging. The project, titled "TRACING THE COORDINATED CONTROL OF NAD+ HOMEOSTASIS", aims to create a comprehensive database and metabolic map of NAD+ biology throughout the lifespan. This research will investigate how NAD+ metabolism is maintained, regulated, and disrupted as cells age, with...
- The federal Project Grant award of $1,440,000.00 was provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310). The project, titled "Systematic Brain-Body Communication and Personalized Aging Trajectories," seeks to elucidate how aging affects brain-body communication at the individual level. The research will integrate an innovative single-whole-organism single-cell sequencing platform and cutting-edge machine...
- This federal Project Grant award of $498,366.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop a platform for high-resolution imaging of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in arrays of microscopic conical wells to assess biological age. The project, led by the University of California, San Diego, seeks to effectively implement an imaging-based chromatin and epigenetic age (IMAGE) analysis approach that captures changes in chromatin organization and...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $320,511 project grant to TRU Diagnostics Inc. to develop a novel diagnostic tool for chronic diseases. The project aims to create a "non-stochastic W function epigenomic roadmap" using systems-based dynamic modeling to capture the shifting homeostatic set points of epigenetic markers over time. This transformative approach aims to enable personalized, dynamic health forecasts...
- This federal Project Grant award of $3,101,237.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866). The funding supports a research project investigating the mechanisms linking persistent DNA damage to immune responses and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell function in the context of aging and DNA repair deficiency. Key objectives of the project include: 1) elucidating...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) is supporting the development of a "Multimodal, Multiscale and Multistage Systems Biology (M3SB) Infrastructure for Precision Medicine in Alzheimer's Disease and Longevity". The $802,034 award aims to conduct multi-modal analyses of genetics, multi-omics data, cross-species protein interactome networks, and human brain-specific functional genomic data to identify...
- The National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) awarded a $506,000 Project Grant to the Scripps Research Institute to engineer a novel biomolecular condensate (BMC)-based tool with tunable physicochemical properties. The goal is to create an orthogonal selective autophagy receptor (SAR)-like BMC capable of supporting autophagosome biogenesis and selective cargo recruitment. This will enable detailed investigation of the biophysical regulatory mechanisms of BMCs in autophagy, which...
