This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $127,440 to Weill Medical College of Cornell University to develop, test, and pilot an evidence-based pain self-management intervention for dementia family caregivers who experience persistent pain and negative emotions. The key objectives are to: 1) Adapt an existing pain management intervention (PATH-PAIN) for use by dementia family caregivers, 2) Assess the usability of the adapted...
This National Institute on Aging (NIA) Project Grant award under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) provides $148,050 in funding to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to conduct a qualitative descriptive study on improving the inclusion of family caregivers during hospitalization of persons living with dementia (PLWD). The study aims to: 1) describe the concept of "dementia friendly" in the hospital setting, 2) examine how family caregivers of PLWD are...
This $562,314 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports a 3-year study to identify risk and protective factors associated with psychosocial resilience in spousal caregivers for spouses with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The study leverages data from several large, longitudinal cohort studies, including the Health and Retirement Study, to examine how caregivers' well-being, mental health, and cognitive...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $203,278 to Brandeis University from November 2024 to January 2026 to conduct research on the neurobiological mechanisms underlying daily life activity participation in older adults and its relationship to Alzheimer's disease pathology. The project will use a multilevel, multimodal framework including behavioral, psychophysiological, neuroimaging, and naturalistic approaches to understand...
This Project Grant award of $161,988 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a research project led by Dr. Emily Mroz at Emory University. The project aims to develop an intervention to improve preparedness and psychological health in experienced caregivers of persons living with dementia. Key activities include validating a caregiver preparedness measure, characterizing caregiving narration patterns, and exploring associations between narration and caregiver...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), is focused on identifying and characterizing clonal expansions that increase with age across various tissues, and understanding how these clonal mosaicism patterns are influenced by aging and age-related diseases. The $159,492 award to Weill Medical College of Cornell University aims to (1) develop tools to accurately identify somatic variants from publicly available...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $1,928,657 Project Grant under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866) to the Regents of the University of Michigan, doing business as the University of Michigan. The 3-year project aims to develop and evaluate new measures of family availability to provide care for people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The study will leverage national survey data to: 1) Create sub-indices and a composite measure of...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to identify which aspects of daily stress processes - frequency, severity, and affective reactions - are linked with heightened inflammatory biomarkers in older adults, and the extent to which these associations vary between men and women. The award of $148,500 will be used by the primary awardee, South Dakota State University, to conduct this research using data from the Einstein Aging Study. The...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $1,987,023 Project Grant under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to the Regents of the University of Michigan to develop new measurement tools and computer adaptive tests to better characterize the experiences of non-traditional and minority informal caregivers of individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias.
