NIH-funded research (11)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Surveillance of drug-resistant eye-related bacteria using affordable long-read sequencing
Researchers are testing a low-cost, community-friendly approach to monitor drug-resistant bacteria in settings with limited resources, using eye-drop-related Pseudomonas and local samples.
-
Enzyme-encapsulated protein frameworks to boost multi-step biocatalysis
Researchers are building enzyme-packed, virus-like particles in a solid scaffold to make multi-step chemical reactions faster and reuse the catalysts longer.
-
SEC-MALS instrument to advance biomedical research and education at Fresno State
A new SEC-MALS instrument will be bought to help Fresno State researchers and students measure the size and weight of proteins and other large molecules more accurately.
-
Affordable detection of drug-resistant Pseudomonas in eyedrops and local samples
This project tests low-cost DNA sequencing to find drug-resistant Pseudomonas in contaminated eyedrops and nearby environmental samples for communities with limited lab resources.
-
Investigating how certain compounds can kill harmful parasitic worms
This study is looking at how certain natural compounds called chalcones can help kill harmful worms that affect plants, animals, and even people, with the hope of finding new treatments for these infections.
-
Developing drugs to target proteins involved in Alzheimer's disease
This study is looking at how certain proteins affect Alzheimer's disease and aims to create new small molecules that can help boost good proteins while lowering harmful ones, with the goal of reducing brain plaque buildup, and it's being tested in lab-grown human brain cells.
-
Tracking drug-resistant bacteria in low-resource areas
This study is looking at how to better track drug-resistant bacteria in eyedrops, especially in places that don't have a lot of resources, so that patients can get faster and more accurate help for infections caused by these tough germs.
-
Program to help under-represented minority students earn doctoral degrees in biomedical sciences
This program is designed to help under-represented minority students from Fresno State earn their Master's degree in biomedical sciences and prepare for a Ph.D. at UC Davis, offering personalized support, research training, and networking opportunities to boost their success in the field.
-
Understanding how tunneling nanotubes help viruses spread between cells
This study is looking at tiny connections between cells called tunneling nanotubes to understand how they help spread viruses like HIV-1 and HTLV-1, which could lead to new ways to treat infections and diseases like cancer and neurodegenerative disorders.
-
Improving the durability of silk-based implants for medical use
This study is exploring how to make special silk implants that can help with healing and delivering medicine, and they want to make sure these implants last just the right amount of time in your body without causing any issues.
-
Improving communication for disabled individuals using brain-computer interfaces
This study is working on new technology to help people with severe disabilities use their thoughts to control devices like computers or robots, by better understanding their brain signals during different activities.
