We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Identifying Regulators of the Naive and Primed Pluripotent State @ Massachusetts General Hospital
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Recent evidence suggests that mouse embryonic stem cells can self-renew in different states of pluripotency, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs), which developmentally correspond to pre- and post-implantation stage epiblast of the embryo, respectively. Exogenous expression of individual transcription factors has been shown to be sufficient to reprogram EpiSCs into na¿ve ESCs. However, despite the developmental similarities of these pluripotent cell types, conversion efficiencies remain low and little is known about the underlying transcriptional, epigenetic, and signaling events of this process. In order to elucidate the mechanisms of EpiSC-to-ESC reprogramming, we here propose to (i) establish fluorescent reporter and inducible transgenic tools to effectively study this process, (ii) define intermediate stages of EpiSC-to-ESC conversion at the transcriptional and epigenetic level, and (iii) perform an unbiased genome-wide shRNA screen to identify novel roadblocks of this process. The investigation of the mechanism of EpiSC-to-ESC conversion is a powerful platform from which we can discover genes important during pre-implantation development and the acquisition of pluripotency. Moreover, we expect that our studies will provide important clues for stabilizing a na¿ve pluripotent state in human cells.
