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.

Characterization of Wt1-Expressing Spinal Interneurons @ Salk Institute For Biological Studies
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Within the ventral spinal cord there resides a diverse population of interneurons (INs) that play important roles in regulating the activity of motor neurons during locomotion. A screen for novel IN markers has revealed the presence of a previously unknown class of lamina VIII INs that arise at the boundary between dI6 and VO INs. These INs specifically express the transcription factor WT1, which is an important developmental regulator of a number of organ systems. The work proposed here will utilize the restricted expression of WT1 in the spinal cord to characterize this newly identified class of INs, providing insight into their contributions to spinal cord function. Additionally, these INs will be inactivated to directly test their role in locomotor behavior. The proposed studies will provide insight into the spinal cord circuitry controlling locomotor behavior and the developmental processes involved in the generation of functionally distinct spinal cord neurons. The techniques used will include marker expression analysis, dextran fills, pseudorabies virus injections, electrophysiology in reduced spinal cord preparations, gene targeting, allatostatin-mediated silencing of neuronal activity, and behavioral analysis.
