Funded collaborative R01 on aortic aneurysm treatment

A collaborative grant with PI, Dr. Naren Vyavahare (Clemson University), and co-Is, Dr. Jessica Wagenseil (Washington University) and Dr. John Eberth (Drexel University) has been funded by the NHLBI! The title is “Targeted therapy to reverse aortic aneurysms”. The research will investigate the use of nanoparticle-based therapy to reverse aortic aneurysms in an abdominal aortic rupture mouse model, a Marfan Syndrome-associated thoracic aortic aneurysm mouse model, and an abdominal aortic aneurysm pig model.
