Wright State University has won a $4.6 million National Institutes of Health grant for neuroscience research aimed at improving the movement of badly injured limbs, officials said Thursday.
The five-year grant will build on the university’s previous nerve injury research and sustain the employment of 15 physicians and scientists at the Boonshoft School of Medicine, said Mark Rich, a neuroscience professor and investigator on the project.
In addition, the funding will support research and graduate training programs at Wright State’s new $37 million Neuroscience and Engineering Collaboration building. A groundbreaking is scheduled for April, and the facility will open in 2015, Rich said.
Officials said the grant is one of only two of its type awarded this year by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, which is part of NIH.
