Award for research on mechanisms of HBx recognition and epigenetic regulation of HBV cccDNA, funded by NIH to Weill Medical College of Cornell University, led by PI Tracy Biaco, with an estimated amount of $50,114 for the period 2026-03-30 to 2029-03-29.
Description
The project aims to elucidate mechanisms of HBx recognition and epigenetic regulation of HBV cccDNA. The project involves biochemical, biophysical, and molecular techniques. It focuses on HBV biology, chromatin regulation, and therapeutic targets. The project is funded by NIH grant PA-23-272 and is part of NIH's efforts to develop a functional cure for chronic HBV infection.
