This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $1,167,871 to conduct a randomized controlled trial of long-term home-based transcranial electrical stimulation for improving cognitive and motor function in older adults at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The primary goal is to evaluate whether transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can induce sustained improvements in dual-task gait performance,...
This $216,210 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research on the potential of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a therapeutic intervention to improve neurovascular coupling and cognitive function in stroke survivors with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI). The project aims to comprehensively evaluate neurovascular coupling responses in stroke survivors with and without cognitive impairment, and conduct a...
This $1,193,500 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research to investigate the mechanisms by which transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) modulate cerebral microvascular function and its influence on neuronal activity. The Lovelace Biomedical Research Institute will conduct in-vivo studies using awake multiphoton microscopy to assess changes in microvascular tone,...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $227,740 to the University of Florida to investigate the use of transcutaneous spinal direct current stimulation (tsDCS) as an adjunct therapy to dynamic balance training in older adults with balance and walking deficits. The overarching goal is to determine if tsDCS can enhance practice-related gains in balance and walking performance and improve spinal excitability in this population. The...
This National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Project Grant award under CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants provides $498,429 to the Children's Research Institute to identify the multi-modal factors that determine individual response to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The project aims to use state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms to analyze a unique dataset of over 225 concurrent tDCS-functional MRI sessions to determine which factors, such as anatomical...
This $3,040,792 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a comprehensive research study on the functional connectivity of white matter regions in the brain and their associations with cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The study aims to systematically characterize the resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) properties of white matter in typical aging, MCI, and AD, and...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866), has awarded Brandeis University a $148,568 Project Grant 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 employ a multilevel, multimodal framework to study the behavioral and neurobiological mechanisms driving age-related shifts in motivation to perform...
This federal Project Grant award, identified as R21NS136909, was issued by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The $253,756 grant supports research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to investigate the potential neurotoxic, gliotoxic, and neuroinflammatory effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the developing brains of guinea...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $254,250 to New York University (NYU) School of Medicine to develop a multi-scale model of brain aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The project will leverage advanced diffusion MRI (dMRI) and mesoscopic MRI (meso-MRI) techniques to analyze brain microstructural changes across the lifespan and along the AD continuum. The goal is to create a brain microstructure age framework that can...
This federal Project Grant award, totaling $678,029, was issued by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The project aims to develop a computational system called Bayesian Longitudinal Microcircuit Analysis (BLMA) to model changes in functional brain microcircuits in a TDP-43 knockout mouse model. This research seeks to understand the dynamics of disease progression related to the mislocalization of TDP-43, a common pathological feature in...
