Intimate partner violence (IPV), the physical violence, sexual violence, psychological aggression, or stalking by a current or former intimate partner, is a significant public heal...
Inhibition of Radiation-Induced Coronary Microvascular Disease
ABSTRACT This application is designed to address the scientific goals of FOA-PA-19-112. Coronary microvascular disease (CMD) is major sequelae of chest radiotherapy in cancer survi...
iGLAMOUR Study: Innovations in Glaucoma Adherence and monitoring Of Under-Represented minorities
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Glaucoma affects more than 70 million people worldwide and is the world's leading cause of irreversible blindness.The only current method to delay its...
Identification of enteric Juvenile Protective Factors and their role in stimulating neurogenesis in the adult and ageing Enteric Nervous System
Project Summary/Abstract Intestinal motility is regulated by the Enteric Nervous System (ENS), which resides entirely within the gut wall and comprises the largest collection of ne...
Single cell, whole genome analysis of the aging human cardiomyocyte
Project Summary/Abstract Recent evidence suggests that environmental factors causing somatic mutations during the lifetime have a more crucial role, not only in cancer but also in...
A Mechanistic Study to elucidate the role of Protein S in elevating the risk of Thrombosis in Obese, Pre-menopausal women
Protein S (PS) is a unique protein because it functions non-enzymatically as an anticoagulant, and because it interacts with plasma components that function in both hemostasis and...
Role of the Intestinal Microbiota in ALS
PROJECT SUMMARY ALS is a neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons with limited treatment options and a median survival of 3-5-years.We submit a significantly revised propo...
Anti-CV2 autoantibodies unmask a CRMP5/GluN2B pain signaling hub
Abstract Neuropathic pain is common neurological disorder affecting between 5-10% of the general population and predicted to become more common in the future because of the aging p...

Developing a screening platform to identify inhibitors of pathological self-assembly of Tau
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disorder that currently affects an estimated 5.7 million individuals in the USA. This age onset disord...
Development of isogenic iPSC cell lines expressing tauopathy-related PERK risk variants to study homeostatic control of protein levels during ER stress
Project Summary In neurodegenerative diseases, accumulation of misfolded proteins is the pathological hallmark. Levels of the toxic proteins, such as tau, correspond to cellular dy...
Deciphering the tau phosphorylation code
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by plaques comprised of Aβ, and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) containing the microtubule associated protein...
Define molecular events driving selective neuronal death in multiple neurodegenerative diseases by snRNA-seq
Project Summary Despite decades of research, currently the mechanisms of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson Disease (PD) remain controversial and there are...
