Project Grant HT94041310030

Myexposome Inc. received a $449,958 Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to develop a route of exposure model using silicone wristbands as personal samplers. The grant is part of the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113), which aims to foster understanding of human health effects from environmental exposures. Under the award, Myexposome will utilize multiple silicone wristband configurations in a field demonstration among...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $567,093 to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research on the impact of wildfire exposure on the human methylome and health. The key objectives of this 2-year project are to: 1) develop comprehensive wildfire exposure assessments for a cohort of 5,000 adults in Northern California, 2) collect...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to characterize the joint effects of early life lead exposure, other metal exposures, and psychosocial co-exposures on physiological stress and cardiometabolic health across the life course. The $107,493 award to the Regents of the University of Michigan aims to: 1) Examine the combined impacts of heavy metals, socioeconomic...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $419,011 to Emory University to develop innovative dimensionality reduction techniques for assessing the joint health effects of air pollution mixtures. The research aims to advance causal modeling approaches that preserve the relationships between air pollutants and health outcomes, in order to provide more accurate assessments of the public...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $483,000.00 to the University of California, Davis to study how chronic exposure to traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) may exacerbate the development of metabolic disorders like obesity and diabetes. The research aims to investigate whether TRAP exposure interferes with the resolution of neurogenic inflammation, leading to...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program provides $676,077 to Colorado State University (CSU) to study the impacts of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution on cardiovascular and respiratory health outcomes. The key products and services being delivered under this award include: Deploying a national network to measure the oxidative potential of PM2.5 samples, which...

This $249,943 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports the research and development of an adverse outcome pathway-focused mechanistic inference tool for 'omics data using semantic knowledge graphs. The key products and services to be delivered through this one-year award include: Improving statistical models to better quantify adverse outcome pathway...

The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $445,240 Project Grant (CFDA 93.113 - Environmental Health) to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The grant supports a research project titled "Prenatal Metal Exposures and Childhood Telomere Length Attrition" that aims to investigate the complex interactions between prenatal metal exposures, gut microbiome, and their influence on telomere length attrition from early to late childhood. The study will...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (CFDA 93.113 Environmental Health) to Emory University for $599,416 will develop, test, and apply new statistical methods to address analytical challenges in environmental epidemiology. The key products and services to be delivered include: Bayesian scalar-on-quantile-function regression models to estimate associations between aggregated health outcomes and population-wide exposure distributions, motivated by...

The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded Nexilico, Inc. a $275,765 Project Grant (CFDA 93.113 - Environmental Health) to develop a predictive computational-experimental platform to characterize microbial biotransformation of xenobiotic compounds and identify naturally occurring gut microbial strains that can mitigate xenobiotic toxicity as novel probiotics. The project aims to provide cost-effective yet accurate predictions to identify microbial species capable...
