- This federal Project Grant award of $298,805 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 support research at Duke University to investigate the role of specific inhibitory and disinhibitory circuits within the cerebellum in learning and behavior. The research aims to establish a better understanding of how inhibitory interneurons, particularly molecular...
- This federal 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, provides $478,732 to Seattle Children's Hospital to characterize the cellular and molecular features of human cerebellar progenitor zones. The research leverages expertise in human cerebellar development and access to fetal tissue to conduct in vitro assays, live imaging, and...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $516,175 Project Grant under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) to Seattle Children's Hospital, doing business as Seattle Children's Research Institute. The 2-year grant, with an award date of August 1, 2025, will fund research to elucidate the developmental processes and mechanisms driving the expansion of cerebellar progenitor zones in ferrets, which exhibit...
- The University of Chicago received a $433,592 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. The award will fund research to assess the conditions under which long-term depression (LTD) is evoked in the cerebellum of intact mice. Specifically, the researchers will investigate how ramping activity in granule cell and Purkinje cell neurons...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $440,610 project grant to Yale University under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program. The grant is funding research that seeks to understand the neural signals necessary for error-based motor learning in both upper-limb movements and speech adaptation. Specifically, the researchers will use behavioral studies, electromyography, and...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a Project Grant of $1,375,478 under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) to the J. David Gladstone Institutes in California. This grant funding supports a multidisciplinary research program to study the role of neurovascular dysfunction in neurodegeneration, CNS repair, and glial cell biology. Key research activities include in vivo two-photon and super-resolution...
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), part of the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded a $4,528,840 Project Grant to The Salk Institute For Biological Studies under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The three-year award beginning August 19, 2022 will fund research to functionally dissect cerebellar output circuits that orchestrate limb motor control. Specifically, the grantee will define molecularly and anatomically distinct subsets of neurons within the cerebellar nuclei, establish how spinal- and thalamus-projecting populations differentially influence forelimb movements through optogenetic and kinematic techniques, and correlate neural activity with online movement corrections. A $100,000 sub-award was also provided to The Scintillon Institute to support products and services furthering the aims of the project. The research aims to provide insight into diverse cerebellar circuits and their roles in motor control, with implications for understanding motor impairments.
