NIH awarded a research grant to Brigham and Women's Hospital for studying allergen and damage sensing by chemosensory tuft cells in the airway, focusing on inflammatory pathways and airway remodeling.
Description
This is a research grant opportunity from NIH for a project on airway chemosensory tuft cells, with a focus on allergen and damage sensing mechanisms. The project aims to define ligand-receptor interactions, inflammatory pathways, and nose-to-lung communication pathways related to airway inflammation and remodeling.
