The Environmental Health Sciences Department is offering this grant to encourage in-depth investigation into transgenerational inheritance in mammals. This funding opportunity specifically targets studies focusing on effects observed through the F3 generation following prenatal exposure to environmental toxicants. This grant is for the purpose of advancing our understanding of how environmental exposures in early life can lead to inherited traits across multiple generations. It aims to support applications that propose further research on already identified instances of such inheritance, building upon existing scientific knowledge. Researchers are encouraged to delve deeper into the mechanisms and implications of these complex intergenerational effects, while exploratory studies are addressed by a separate, companion funding opportunity.
