We have been generously funded, primarily by the NIH, since 1999. Currently, most of our funding is from NINDS in the form of a large R35 award, a collaborative R01 grant shared with the Franco and Sagerstrom labs, and four NRSA training fellowships. We also have benefited by excellent support from the Gates Frontiers Fund and the Diane G. Wallach Chair in Pediatric Stem Cell Biology. Our current support is detailed below.
