The Priority Programme “EPIADAPT: Epigenomic Adaptations of the Developing Neural Chromatin” (SPP 2502) from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) supports research on the adaptive neural epigenome, by exploring the causalities of epigenomic adaptations during development by gaining an understanding of signalling to and from neural chromatin and by connecting adapted epigenomes to cellular outcomes. The insights to be delivered within the funding period of the SPP 2502 concern molecular mechanisms that mediate the environmental contribution to an adapted neuroepigenome and control the plasticity of the neuroepigenome during progression of development. Applications are open to researchers in Germany.
The award provides three years of research funding.
Applications close December 11, 2024.
