Grant Description

Through the efforts of the GUDMAP consortium, substantial progress has been made in establishing a molecular anatomy atlas of the developing murine kidney. This has provided a significant resource in support of research in kidney development, repair and regeneration. However, there remain significant gaps within the atlas in the areas of the developing lower urinary tract (ureter, bladder, urethra, sphincter, and prostate) and the developing vascular and nervous system associated with the organs of the urinary tract. To address these deficiencies, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) invites applications for Cooperative Agreement Research Projects (U01) that focus on defining the molecular anatomy of the developing murine lower urinary tract, or the innervation and vasculature of the lower urinary tract organs. These applications will be considered as part of a continuing GUDMAP effort.
