NIH-funded research project at University of Michigan studying interneuron pathology and cell therapy in a rabbit model of Dravet Syndrome, with an award amount of approximately $44,159.
Description
Research project focused on Dravet Syndrome using a rabbit model, investigating interneuron development and cell transplantation therapy. The project tests the hypothesis that SCN1A haploinsufficiency disrupts interneuron development and that transplantation can restore function.
