The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is offering this grant opportunity to support research investigating transgenerational inheritance in mammals. This funding encourages applications utilizing mouse or rat models to explore whether exposure to environmental toxicants can lead to adverse phenotypic outcomes. The core focus is on understanding if these adverse effects are subsequently transmitted to unexposed generations, a critical phenomenon known as transgenerational inheritance. This grant aims to advance our understanding of how environmental exposures may have long-lasting, multi-generational impacts on health, fostering studies that elucidate the mechanisms behind such inherited traits.
