NIH-funded research (13)
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.
-
Helping hearing recover after damage to the tiny nerve connections in the inner ear
This project looks for the best timing and medicines to help the tiny nerve connections inside the ear heal so people who lose hearing from loud noise or certain drugs can regain more hearing.
-
Boosting bone metabolism to speed fracture healing in diabetes
Seeing if raising a molecule called NAMPT in broken bones helps people with obesity-related type 2 diabetes heal fractures faster.
-
Therapeutic use of 3D-printed scaffolds and small-molecule activators to heal bone fractures in CKD mice
A bone-healing strategy using 3D-printed scaffolds and two small molecules aims to improve fracture healing in a mouse model of chronic kidney disease.
-
Ksr2 and obesity-related hearing loss in a mouse model: what it means for veterans
This project studies how obesity and type 2 diabetes affect hearing using a mouse model to identify ways to protect hearing in people with metabolic problems.
-
Benefits of speech-based hearing tests and low-gain hearing aids for blast-exposed Veterans
A study in veterans exposed to blasts will test a new, data-driven way to fit low-gain hearing aids using speech-based hearing tests to help with difficult listening in noisy places.
-
Improving hearing recovery after damage to tiny nerve connections in the ear
This project seeks treatments to help people regain hearing after damage to the tiny nerve connections in the inner ear caused by certain antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, or loud noise.
-
Investigating how color vision is affected in veterans with mild traumatic brain injury
This study is looking at veterans with mild brain injuries who have trouble seeing colors, even when regular tests say their vision is fine, to create a new test that helps understand their visual problems better and find ways to help them.
-
Using osteoclast-derived microvesicles to speed bone healing
This project aims to use tiny particles released by bone-resorbing cells to speed and strengthen healing in people with broken bones.
-
Exploring new hearing aid methods for Veterans with blast exposure
This study is looking at how exposure to blasts affects Veterans' ability to understand speech in noisy places, even if their hearing tests come back normal, and it aims to create a new way to help them get better-fitting hearing aids that match their unique listening needs.
-
Understanding how noise exposure affects hearing pathways
This study is looking at how noise and blasts affect hearing in military personnel, aiming to better understand and diagnose hearing loss so that those affected can get better care and support.
-
Understanding how bone cells regulate healing in fractures
This study is looking at how certain cells that break down bone can help speed up healing after a fracture, and it’s testing if special injections can make this process faster for people with broken bones.
-
Investigating the effects of traumatic brain injury on bone health in veterans
This study is looking at how traumatic brain injuries can affect bone health in veterans, with the hope of finding new ways to prevent bone problems as they age.
-
Creating 3D printed bone grafts to help heal difficult fractures
This study is testing a new 3D printed bone graft that uses special tiny molecules to help heal stubborn fractures that won't heal on their own, aiming to give patients with tough bone injuries a better chance at recovery.
