A huge congratulations to 2020 CTMR pilot grant recipient Farid Moussavi-Harami, MD, who recently received a Notice of Award for his first NIH R01 grant! An Assistant Professor with the UW Medicine’s Division of Cardiology, Dr. Moussavi Harami’s CTMR pilot grant study focused on the genetic mutations, such as dilated cardiomyopathy, impacted contractile force in…
I am pleased to announce a request for proposals to the Pilot Grant program of the UW Center for Translational Muscle Research (CTMR). Applications are due on Wednesday, February 15, 2023, by 5:00 pm. Visit http://ctmr.washington.edu/pilot-grants/ for more information.
In May, CTMR Investigators participated in the 2022 Myofilament research conference “Myofilament Form and Function: Determinants of Sarcomeric Contractility” in Madison, Wisconsin.
Congratulations to CTMR Team Core D for their JGP May cover showing “A detailed computational model of striated muscle elucidates how mutations and drugs may alter twitch timing. The spatially explicit model simulates myosin motors connected within a compliant, contractile lattice, complete with thin filament regulation and varying mutation penetrance. The model yields data used…
On October 24th, 2022 the CTMR held its annual symposium. Over 130 people registered and researchers from a variety of backgrounds shared their work during our first in-person symposium since the founding of the Center in 2019. CTMR director, Dr, Michael Regnier welcomed scientists from near and far. Although most of the attendees were from…
Applications are now open for the UW Center for Translational Muscle Research (CTMR) Mini Pilot Grants! Mini Pilot Grants provide $5,000-$10,000 in direct support for pilot studies to new users of CTMR core services who need a limited, specified set of data from one of the cores. Examples of the use of this grant mechanism…
