NIH-funded research (8)
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.
-
How the AIP protein changes sensitivity to dioxin-like chemicals
This project looks at whether different versions of the AIP protein make people and animals more or less affected by dioxins and similar environmental chemicals.
-
Early-life algal toxin effects on the developing brain
Researchers are looking at how low-level exposure to algal bloom toxins during childhood and young adulthood may change brain cells and behavior.
-
Environmental drivers of toxic algal blooms and shellfish toxin risk
Researchers are building models to predict when toxic algae will bloom and how people who eat shellfish or live near the coast might be exposed to toxins.
-
Preventing harmful algal bloom exposure in coastal communities
This program helps coastal residents, seafood harvesters, educators, and local clinicians reduce exposure to toxic algal blooms through better monitoring, education, and data sharing.
-
Protecting people from harmful ocean algal toxins
This project works to improve detection and prediction of toxic algal blooms so coastal communities and seafood consumers face less risk of shellfish poisoning.
-
Exploring how the aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacts with various chemicals
This study is looking at a protein called AHR that helps our bodies deal with harmful substances from the environment, and it's for anyone interested in how this protein affects our health and development.
-
How environmental chemicals affect RNA modifications in developing embryos
This study looks at how certain environmental chemicals, especially dioxins, might change a specific part of RNA in developing fish embryos, which could help us understand how these chemicals might affect growth and development in animals, including humans.
-
Understanding how genetic differences affect sensitivity to harmful environmental chemicals
This study is looking at how a protein called AIP affects how people react to harmful chemicals in the environment, like dioxins, to help understand why some folks are more sensitive to these toxins than others, which could give patients helpful information about their own risks.
