Developmental Research Projects
Developmental Projects
The Great Lakes RCE also supports a Developmental Projects program. These projects are short, adventurous studies aimed at providing novel approaches to the study of disease and the development of new therapies against bioterror agents. Developmental Projects are directed by investigators in the region with excellent track records for research success. Currently, the Great Lakes RCE supports 4 Developmental Projects.
- GLDP001: Intrinsic antimicrobial resistance in Entrococcus fetails: Medical College of Wisconsin.
- GLDP002 Control of gene expression by Hfq and small regulatory RNAs in Yersinia pestis: Northwestern.
- GLDP004 Analyzing the Role of BAF as an Intrinsic dsDNA Sensor during Viral Infection: Medical college of Wisconsin.
- GLDP005 FadD
Inhibitors as Chemotherapeutic Agents for Multidrug Resistant Tuberculosis: University of Minnesota-Minneapolis
Career Development Projects
The Great Lakes RCE invests in the careers of young scientists both for faculty or postdoctoral projects. There are currently 3 active Career Development Projects:
- GLCD001 Nucleotide synthesis inhibitor therapy for hypoxemia in influenza infection: OSU
- GLCD002 Membrane Re-Organizaton in Dengue Virus Replication: University of Chicago
- GLCD003 Identification of small molecule inhibitors and novel drug targets for noroviruses: University of Michigan
