New Grants Power Muscle Science
Two new grants will accelerate atomic-scale research into the molecular mechanisms of cardiomyopathies. In Autumn 2024, CTMR investigator Matthew Childers was awarded a competitive K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the NIH. Childers’ project combines computational simulations of muscle proteins with stem-cell derived cardiomyocytes to create a…
Complex problems require collaborative science
CTMR Investigators, Mike Regnier and David Mack, were part of a multi-institutional research effort to uncover the disease mechanism for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy caused by a mutation in myosin (MYH7 G256E). The project was a collaborative effort between investigators at UW, Stanford University, University of California Santa Barbara, the Curie Institute in Paris, and the Allen Institute for Cell…
