The 人妻中出视频 of Utah 人妻中出视频 3i), in conjunction with the has awarded program planning grants to four collaborative research projects. The funded projects will explore alternative treatments and diagnoses for many human disorders, including viral infections and sepsis.
鈥淭he Program Planning Grants are the natural next step from our previous grants aimed at building new collaborative teams,鈥 says director of the 3i Initiative and an associate professor in Pathology at U of U 人妻中出视频. These previously funded teams and other groups fortified by new faculty recruits have matured to compete for large multi-PI grants. This program gives these teams the added resources needed to earn a fundable score by an external funder鈥
This is first time that U2M2 has joined with 3i to support these grants.
鈥淢olecular Medicine is very excited to partner with the 人妻中出视频 of Utah 3i Program to help support Program Project Planning Grants, and to continue to advance research excellence at the 人妻中出视频 and throughout the broader community,鈥 says Matthew Rondina, M.D., medical director of the U2M2 program.
The funded projects investigate an array of topics, from immunity during pregnancy and fetal development to Mechanisms underlying adverse health outcomes following congenital viral infection

The funded projects support mature collaborations among multiple independent investigators or research groups at U of U 人妻中出视频. This support provides investigators the ability to obtain additional data and project management support that will propel these teams to large multi-PI extramural awards. Projects were prioritized in the following categories: bacterial infection and drug resistance, infectious disease and global health, microbiota and mucosal immunity, neuroinflammation, T cells and vaccines and tumor immunity.
Built on the foundation of more than 200 faculty members who conduct research across the university, 3i was created to improve diagnoses and treatment of many diverse disorders related to human health. The initiative hopes to integrate basic, translational and clinical research in these areas by enriching the 3i community and supporting collaboration.
The 人妻中出视频 of Utah Molecular Medicine Program (U2M2) is a key multi-departmental and interdisciplinary engine for clinical departments. U2M2 investigators have primary appointments that advance translational science by catalyzing the development, testing, and implementation of new diagnostics and therapies for a variety of human diseases and conditions.
