Collaborative neuromuscular research teams from the Faculty of Medicine and Lyon 1-Claude Bernard University were awarded grants to support cutting-edge research through the INMG-CNMD Collaborative Research Program Grant competition!
The INMG-CNMD Collaborative Research Program aims to support ongoing and new research linkages between basic or clinical neuromuscular researchers at the Center for Neuro Muscular Diseases (University of Ottawa) and the Institut NeuroMyoGene (Lyon 1 Claude Bernard University, France). The Grant competition has granted funds to four joint research teams from the CNMD and INMG to support their innovative research projects.
Congratulations!
- Drs Puccio, Gache, and Perkins’ project aims to unravel the pathological pathways involved in Autosomal Recessive Cerebellar Ataxia 2.
- Drs Brun and Rudnicki’s project aims to discover new therapies for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
- Drs Le Grand, Chazaud, and Rudnicki’s project aims to define controls of mesenchymal progenitor cells during muscle repair and disease.
- Drs Mari and Côté’s project aims to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern nucleolar reorganisation.
