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.

Years	Recipients	Code	Title / Keywords	Matching score
2005	Kirn-Safran, Catherine	P20Activity Code Description: To support planning for new programs, expansion or modification of existing resources, and feasibility studies to explore various approaches to the development of interdisciplinary programs that offer potential solutions to problems of special significance to the mission of the NIH. These exploratory studies may lead to specialized or comprehensive centers.

Perlecan and Heparanase in Cartilage Growth and Healing @ University of Delaware This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. In the first project, Dr. Farach-Carson proposes to define precisely the structural and functional roles that perlecan (Pln) and its associated heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan chains play in cartilage biology. HS proteoglycans have recently emerged as key regulators of cartilage biology and play critical roles during embryonic development, in maintenance of cartilage structures in the adult organism, and in regrowth of damaged cartilage resulting from age, osteoarthritis or injury. Using a combination of in vitro chondrogenesis models and mice harboring mutations in Pln or HS biosynthetic enzymes, Dr. Farach-Carson et al. will address the hypothesis that Pln and heparanase I are essential players in normal chondrogenesis and cartilage healing, and that their complex roles in these processes are associated with specialized functions encrypted within the various domains and require the presence and turnover of HS. Dr. Farach-Carson is a full professor and will not have a mentor. Show summary Hide summary	1
