We are pleased to announce that Drs. Sarah Dallas and Erin Bumann, both members of the School of Dentistry Department of Oral & Craniofacial Sciences, are co-investigators in recently awarded grants for collaborative research projects.
Dr. Dallas (pictured left) will be participating on a $48.8 K grant with Dr. Charlotte Phillips from UM Columbia for the project, “Compromised Mitochondrial Function in the pathogenesis of Osteogenesis Imperfecta”. This research was awarded by the Kansas City Musculoskeletal Diseases Consortium.
Dr. Erin Bumann (pictured right) will work with Dr. Pamela V. Tran from KU School of Medicine on a $48.8 K project titled, “Role of genetic interaction between ciliary paralogs, Thm2 and Thm1, in postnatal skeletogenesis”, also awarded by the KC Musculoskeletal Diseases Consortium.
Congratulations to both researchers!
