NIH-NIGMS Consortia

• LIPID MAPS Consortium
  The LIPID MAPS Consortium will develop techniques to separate and identify all of the lipids in a specific cell, to track the levels of lipids and related molecules, and to build maps characterizing each lipid's life cycle and interactions.
• Consortium for Functional Glycomics
  The Consortium for Functional Glycomics (CFG) is a large research initiative to study the role of carbohydrate-protein interactions at the cell surface in cell-cell communication.
• Inflammation and the Host Response to Injury
  Inflammation and the Host Response to Injury is a collaborative program that aims to uncover the biological reasons why patients can have dramatically different outcomes after suffering a traumatic injury.
• Alliance for Cell Signaling (AfCS)
  The overall goal of the Alliance for Cell Signaling (AfCS) is to understand how cells generate and integrate intercellular signals in response to multiple extracellular stimuli, and to quantitatively model that information.
