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.

Multidisciplinary Workshops On Multiple Sclerosis @ National Multiple Sclerosis Society
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society proposes to organize a series of multidisciplinary workshops on biomedical research related to multiple sclerosis (MS). Each would bring together young investigators from a variety of fields, and usually a number of countries, with more mature investigators to chair the sessions and provide perspective. A limited number of postdoctoral fellows would be invited to attend as observers. The programs would be designed to provide ample time for discussion as well as free time for individual contacts. The initial workshop topic proposed is "Mechanisms of Myelin Breakdown," and other topics under consideration include "Glial Functions in MS and Model Systems". "Newer Immunological Studies of the CSF", "Electrophysiology of Demyelinated and Remyelinated Nerve Fibers", "NMR and Other Imaging Techniques in MS", and "Immunogenetics of EAE". Summaries of individual workshops will be published in widely read neurological or other journal. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has successfully organized workshops of the kind proposed since 1968.

Course--Pathogenesis of Neuroimmunologic Diseases @ Marine Biological Laboratory
Partial support is requested for a two-week intensive lecture course in 'Pathogenesis of Neuroimmunologic Diseases' , to be offered each summer for three years at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. Faculty will consist largely of established younger American investigators who carry on fundamental immunologic or neurophysiologic studies on diseases of the nervous system. The student body is expected to include advanced graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, medical residents (particularly in neurology and neurosurgery), and a few senior immunologists and neuroscientists. The lectures will describe the application of genetic, molecular, and cell physiologic concepts and techniques in current use in immunology and neurophysiology to the analysis of pathogenesis in several of the better known neurologic diseases thought to have an immunologic basis. These sessions will be supplemented by demonstrations of patients with typical neuroimmunologic disease (e.g. myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis) and of relevant viral or autoimmune models in animals. The MBL is one of the premier teaching institutions of the United States in the realm of molecular and developmental biology and fundamental neurosciences. It is populated each summer by outstanding young scientists attending courses lasting from two to ten weeks. The MBL has embarked on the formation of a Marine Biomedical Institute for Advanced Studies. This course in neuroimmunology would be offered in order to bring more medically oriented scientists to the MBL, and simultaneously, complement the very fundamental science now predominant there with an introduction to high quality disease-oriented research at a very basic level.
