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.

Kainate Receptors &Development-Minority Fellowship @ Columbia University Health Sciences
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Acute and chronic pain affect a significant amount of people across the US every year. Thus, the development of effective analgesics free of serious side effects has been a major challenging area of medicine. The development of effective analgesics to combat pain has been slowed by a lack of progress in understanding of the development and physiology of the pain pathway. To this end, the long-term objective of this proposal is to understand the factors and mechanisms regulating the development of the nociceptive pathway. Thus, we describe a series of aims to investigate the role of calcium-permeable kainate receptors in synapse formation between rat nociceptive dorsal root ganglion and spinal cord dorsal horn neurons. In the first aim, we set resolve the presence of these receptors at the growth cone of DRG neurons and determine whether they play any role in growth cone dynamics by calcium-imaging techniques. In aim 2, we propose to establish the time course of synapse formation and the effects of pharmacological blockade of these receptors on synapse formation by using electrophysiology and immunocytochemistry. Finally, we propose to directly test their role in synapse formation by overexpressing and silencing their genes in vitro. [unreadable] [unreadable]
