Injury Control COBRE
Injury occurrence is typically thought of as “bad luck” or fatalistic; however, over the last fifty years the field of injury control science has grown to demonstrate that injuries can be controlled. Many injuries can be prevented through behavioral interventions, engineering strategies, dissemination of education, and policy implementation. Mission: The Rhode Island Hospital (RIH) Injury […]
IDeA Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence in Kentucky
The overarching goal of the Kentucky Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (KY INBRE) is to build capacity for health-related and biomedical research in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

North Dakota INBRE Health and the Environment
North Dakota is a large land mass, low population, agricultural state with only 755,393 citizens occupying over 68,976 square miles. Thirty-six (36) of North Dakotas 53 counties retain a Federal designation as ?Frontier Counties? since they contain less than 6 people per square mile. A result of this environment was that the system of higher […]

Recognition and recruitment of RNA viruses into RNA silencing pathways
In eukaryotes, RNA silencing is a conserved mechanism of gene regulation and has essential antiviral roles in in plants, nematodes, and insects. Antiviral RNA silencing is triggered by viral dsRNA and is characterized by the accumulation of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) derived from viral RNA (primary siRNAs) formed by Dicer- like proteins (DCL). Features of […]
Center for Cancer Biology
The primary goal of the COBRE is to build upon the critical mass of basic science and translational cancer researchers that has been developed during Phase I funding of the Cancer Biology Research Center. Phase II will focus on cancer research with direct translational relevance to human patients. Thus four of our five project leaders […]
