Center for Pediatric Brain Health

Abstract Text Abstract/Summary: Overall Component This application for a Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) would initiate a Center for Pediatric Brain Health to manage, support, and expand developmental neuroimaging and pediatric neuroscience research at Boys Town National Research Hospital (BTNRH) in Omaha, Nebraska. It is an opportune moment for pediatric neuroscience at BTNRH, as […]

BioSystems Networks and Translational Research – Insights into Inflammation (BioSNTR-II)

Abstract Text PROJECT SUMMARY – OVERALL The goal of this proposal is a coordinated, synergized, and integrated COBRE research program, called the “BioSystems Networks and Translational Research – Insights into Inflammation (BioSNTR-II),” at South Dakota State University (SDSU), Brookings, SD. Our research objective is to improve human health by advancing the understanding of molecular, […]
Implementation Science and Equity

Abstract Text PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT: OVERALL COBRE on Implementation Science & Equity Shrinking the time lag for translating research evidence into clinical practice would improve health outcomes across multiple domains and reduce costs to society. Until recently, however, clinical research has devoted little attention to implementing evidence-based practices in real-world clinical care. Moreover, rural, minority, and […]
STARTUP Central

STARTUP Central is led by Continuum Educational Technologies (CET) in partnership with the University of Kansas and KU Innovation Park. STARTUP Central will help the Central region address a persistent gap between its robust and well-established research activities and the development of a comparable pipeline of academic entrepreneurs seeking to commercialize the many innovations resulting from this research. […]

Cellular and Molecular Geoscience COBRE

There have been impressive advances in understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms of aging, including the discovery of manipulations that delay aging and increase healthspan. Importantly, these interventions also reduce or prevent age-related diseases. These outcomes raise the possibility that multiple human diseases arise from a common cause ? aging. The premise of this CoBRE […]
Nebraska Center for Nanomedicine

The need for the discovery and development of innovative technologies to improve the delivery of therapeutic and diagnostic agents in the body is widely recognized. The “next generation” therapies must be able to deliver drugs, therapeutic proteins and recombinant DNA to focal areas of disease or to tumors to maximize clinical benefit while limiting untoward […]
Nebraska Center for the Prevention of Obesity Diseases through Dietary Molecules

The Nebraska Center for the Prevention of Obesity Diseases through Dietary Molecules (NPOD) supports research on the identification of biological signals that prevent, treat, and cure obesity and related diseases. The emphasis of NPOD is on food-borne signals. Led by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) in close collaboration with the University of Nebraska Medical Center […]
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 […]
