Active Grants
Hillman, N
Lung injury with Resuscitation of the Preterm
NIH-NHLBI K08-HL097085
This project will study the pathogenesis and early inflammatory perturbations induced by mechanical ventilation using a preterm sheep model.
$129,870/yr
07/01/09 - 6/30/14
Jobe, A
Neonatal Resuscitation and Preterm Lung Injury
NIH-NICHD 5 R01 HD12714-29
This project is to determine factors contributing to the injury response of the preterm lung to the initiation of ventilation using continuous positive airway pressure, oxygen and mechanical ventilation. These are translational studies of which components of neonatal resuscitation injure the preterm lung and how.
$185,718/yr
12/01/05 - 11/30/10
Kallapur, S
Mechanisms of Fetal Inflammatory Response Syndrome Induced by Chorioamnionitis
NIH-NICHD R01 HD57869
This project will study the pathogenesis of fetal systemic inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) in preterm fetuses exposed to endotoxin induced chorioamnionitis in sheep. The grant will also evaluate the fetal innate immune responses to chorioamnionitis and how endotoxin tolerance modulates FIRS.
