Andrew Wilson, Finn Hawkins, and Kostas Alysandratos. This is the first NHLBI Program Project Grant (PPG) that will focus entirely on stem cells to advance lung regeneration research, in this case translating lung stem cell research from basic discovery to future clinical applications. The PPG will have 4 projects and 2 cores, all interacting to complete shared aims, and synergistic cross-project experiments.
