This $4.385 million project grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute on Aging will fund research into digital detection of social isolation and loneliness markers of risk for Alzheimer's disease. The University of California, San Diego will collect data from 128 cognitively normal older adults divided into high- and low-risk groups based on cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers and subtle cognitive decline markers. Researchers will administer in-lab standard measures as well as...
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 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) will provide $123,579 to Northeastern University to conduct a mixed-methods study on the interplay of social and physical environments, loneliness, and cognition among older adults living with HIV. The 5-year project aims to: 1) determine the longitudinal patterns of loneliness and cognition, 2) identify social and physical environment factors related to loneliness and...
This Project Grant award of $405,940.00 from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) aims to characterize the neural, cognitive, and behavioral mechanisms underlying loneliness. The project, titled "A Hierarchical Examination of the Neural and Computational Mechanisms Underlying Loneliness," will utilize state-of-the-art computational, behavioral, and neural methods to identify computational phenotypes of loneliness across the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support research by Dr. Jinshil Hyun at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine to investigate the influence of neighborhood characteristics, including both objective and subjective measures as well as GPS-based activity space, on cognitive decline, Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), and cognitive health disparities. The $448,992 award covers the period from February 1, 2025 to...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $466,125 to New York University (NYU) to develop a biologically relevant multi-scale model of brain aging using advanced diffusion MRI (dMRI) techniques. The project aims to generate brain charts of quantitative dMRI and mesoscopic MRI (mesoMRI) markers across the lifespan, creating a brain microstructure age framework. This framework will then be used to evaluate the effects of...
This $2,366,213 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) will fund the INLIFE (Individualized Lifestyle Change for Every Aging Brain) study. The study aims to harmonize and analyze participant-level data from 12 U.S. randomized controlled trials to examine how changes in lifestyle behaviors such as physical activity, cognitive activity, diet, and social engagement impact cognitive outcomes across diverse older adult populations....
This Project Grant award of $794,978.00 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), will support a longitudinal study to examine accelerated epigenetic aging as a mechanism linking socioeconomic disadvantage across the lifespan to cognitive decline in midlife. The research will leverage the Adult Health and Behavior Project's existing data on individual socioeconomic status, neuropsychological assessments, and stored blood samples to analyze...
This Project Grant award of $3,177,045 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a 20-year longitudinal study examining psychosocial risk and protective factors for cognitive functioning among middle-aged and older Black Americans. The primary awardee, the Regents of the University of Michigan, will re-interview approximately 2,600 participants from the National Survey of American Life to collect longitudinal data on factors influencing cognitive and physical...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will fund a study to examine how high-resolution diffusion imaging can provide new insights into age-related changes in white matter connectivity and their impact on cognitive function and brain network dynamics. The $300,892 award to Duke University, which runs from October 2024 through April 2027, will support research across three aims: 1) comparing standard and high-resolution diffusion imaging...
