Title:
Development of a detailed computational kinetic model of glutathione metabolism
Agreement Value:
$25,000.00
Agreement Date:
Mar 20, 2020 - Mar 31, 2021
Description:
Glutathione is found in most cells and tissues with an extremely important role in protecting healthy as well as cancer cells against toxic injury. The goal is to create a predictable model of glutathione metabolism in healthy cells and cancer cells in order to provide better understanding of its role in disease progression.

Program:
Collaborative Science, Technology and Innovation Program – Ideation Fund
Program Purpose:
The Ideation Fund is intended to encourage, test and validate transformative research ideas generated by teams of NRC scientific personnel and external collaborators with complementary capabilities, acting as a demonstration phase for a continually-evolving suite of research and development (R&D) deliverables at the NRC. The fund supports exploratory research through two mechanisms: the New Beginnings Initiative and the Small Teams Initiative.
