FILADELFIA, 15 de septiembre de 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Pew Charitable Trusts anunció hoy a los seis pares de investigadores que conformarán la clase 2021 de investigadores del Innovation Fund.

Estos científicos, graduados de los programas biomédicos de Pew en Estados Unidos y Latinoamérica, serán socios en una investigación interdisciplinaria que tiene por objetivo abordar algunas de las preguntas más urgentes acerca de las enfermedades y de la biología humana. Mediante la combinación de su experiencia en temas que varían desde la microbiología hasta la genética y desde la inmunología hasta la biología del desarrollo, estos investigadores trabajarán con la finalidad de promover el descubrimiento científico y mejorar la salud de los seres humanos. 

"La pandemia del COVID-19 dejó en evidencia el rol crítico que juega la innovación en la investigación biomédica a la hora de abordar los problemas sanitarios globales", afirmó Molly Irwin, vicepresidenta de Investigación y Ciencia en The Pew Charitable Trusts. "Pew se enorgullece de brindar su apoyo a los investigadores que conformarán la clase 2021 del Innovation Fund, quienes intentarán responder conjuntamente algunas de las preguntas más apremiantes en materia de salud y ciencia".   

Durante más de 35 años, Pew ha fomentado la colaboración entre su comunidad diversa de científicos biomédicos, lo que llevó al lanzamiento del Innovation Fund en 2017. Los criterios para otorgar este financiamiento se desarrollaron con el fin de promover la sinergia entre los graduados del programa, así como de motivar a los investigadores para colaborar en nuevas propuestas. Todos los graduados que ocupen cargos de profesor auxiliar o una categoría superior pueden postularse para el financiamiento, que cuenta con el apoyo del Kathryn W. Davis Peace by Pieces Fund.

Estos son los equipos y los proyectos de investigación del Innovation Fund de este año:

Paola A. Haeger Soto, Ph.D., becaria latinoamericana de Pew de la clase 2010; Universidad Católica del Norte, Chile 

Adrian R. Krainer, Ph.D., académico en Biomedicina de Pew del año 1992; Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory

Haeger Soto y Krainer examinarán los mecanismos por medio de los cuales el consumo de alcohol durante el embarazo provoca discapacidades del neurodesarrollo, como el síndrome alcohólico fetal.

Deborah J. Lenschow, M.D., Ph.D., académica en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2008; Universidad de Washington en St. Louis

Gabrielle Kardon, Ph.D., académica en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2006; Universidad de Utah 

Lenschow y Kardon estudiarán cómo el virus Chikungunya, un patógeno que es transmitido por los mosquitos y causa fiebre, sarpullido y artritis en los seres humanos, provoca síntomas crónicos y persistentes incluso después de que haya disminuido la infección.

Coleen T. Murphy, Ph.D., académica en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2006; Universidad de Princeton

Roberto Ricardo Grau, Ph.D., becario latinoamericano de Pew de la clase 1994; Universidad Nacional de Rosario, Argentina

Murphy y Grau explorarán cómo las bacterias intestinales beneficiosas afectan los genes asociados a la edad.

David R. Sherwood, Ph.D., académico en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2007; Universidad de Duke

Kenneth D. Poss, Ph.D., académico en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2006; Universidad de Duke

Sherwood y Poss investigarán los eventos de señalización coordinados que se producen en el cuerpo durante la reparación y regeneración de los tejidos.

Juan E. Ugalde, Ph.D., becario latinoamericano de Pew de la clase 2004; Universidad de San Martín, Argentina

Carlos O. Arregui, Ph.D., becario latinoamericano de Pew de la clase 1991; Universidad de San Martín, Argentina   

Ugalde y Arregui explorarán el rol de las vesículas de la membrana externa de las bacterias (protuberancias esféricas de la membrana bacteriana enriquecidas de enzimas y toxinas) en la entrega e introducción de factores de virulencia a las células huésped.

Elçin Ünal, Ph.D., académica en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2014; Universidad de California, Berkeley

Gloria A. Brar, Ph.D., académica en Biomedicina de Pew del año 2016; Universidad de California, Berkeley 

Ünal y Brar investigarán las vías de respuesta al estrés en la regulación del envejecimiento celular y de la longevidad.
