Research Spotlight

Dr. John F. Engelhardt research focuses on the molecular basis of CF and the development of gene therapies for the disease. Notably, Dr. Engelhardt's laboratory was the first to clone ferrets, creating new animal models that have enhanced the study of CF pathologies and potential treatments.

Pilot Programs

Pilot programs  provides seed money for research that has not yet reached the stage of maturity necessary for funding by traditional NIH mechanisms such as RO1s and PO1s. Such research ideas should be considered innovative and may potentially be high risk.

Famke Aeffner
Chromogenic immunohistochemistry (IHC) is an important molecular localization assay in biomedical research and nonclinical drug development, enabling the visualization of specific epitopes within tissues. The methodology is widely used in drug target selection, risk assessment, understanding disease biology, and characterizing histopathological findings in nonclinical studies. The Scientific and Regulatory Policy Committee of the Society of Toxicologic Pathology formed a working group to compile...
