The grant will also provide funds for equipment and operating expenses over  three years.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The  availability of this shared research laboratory will allow Salk researchers to  initiate research on human embryonic stem cells and to contribute to this very  exciting field of biology,&#8221; says Program Project Director <a href=\"\/de\/faculty\/verma.html\/\">Inder Verma<\/a>, Ph.D.,  a professor in the Laboratory of Genetics, who spearheads the stem cell  facility project at the Salk Institute.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Salk faculty is also very grateful for the  invaluable expertise and help during the planning stages provided by Garry Van  Gerpen, senior director of Facility Services, and his staff members, who are  the ones who ultimately make it happen,&#8221; Verma said.<\/p>\n<p>To date, the Salk  Institute has received more than $7.5 million in stem cell research grants from  CIRM. Earlier this year, Salk professor Fred H. Gage received $2.9 million for  research to develop methods of turning hESCs into neural stem cells; and professors Senyon Choe, Beverly Emerson and  Sam Pfaff received seed funding totaling $2.28. <\/p>\n<p>The latest  round of CIRM grants, totaling more than $50 million, will finance construction  of shared research laboratories at 17 academic and non-profit institutions for  the culture of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), particularly those that fall  outside federal guidelines. (Current federal policy prohibits research  involving hESCs isolated after August 2001 from being conducted in laboratories  constructed with any federal funding). These facilities are scheduled to be  complete and available to researchers within six months to two years of the  grant awards. <\/p>\n<p>The Salk  Institute for Biological Studies in La    Jolla, California, is  an independent nonprofit organization dedicated to fundamental discoveries in  the life sciences, the improvement of human health and the training of future  generations of researchers. Jonas Salk, M.D., whose polio vaccine all but  eradicated the crippling disease poliomyelitis in 1955, opened the Institute in  1965 with a gift of land from the City of San Diego and the financial support of the March of Dimes.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","faculty":[115],"disease-research":[],"class_list":["post-1890","disclosure","type-disclosure","status-publish","hentry","faculty-inder-verma"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
