- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $161,500.00 to investigate the role of perineuronal nets (PNN) in the development of postoperative delirium in aged mice. The research aims to test the hypothesis that changes in PNN and parvalbumin-positive neurons coincide with delirium-like cognitive impairment in aged mice subjected to anesthesia, surgery, and intensive care unit (ICU)-like conditions. The project will also examine whether...
