This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, will support research to investigate the effects of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on placental function and children's growth and development. The total funding amount is $695,853 and the award period is from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2029.
The research will leverage three existing cohorts to...
This $533,723 federal Project Grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) will support research at Wayne State University to investigate how exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impacts placental inflammation and susceptibility to preterm birth. The researchers will examine how PFAS exposure alters interferon signaling and glycoprotein distribution in the placenta, and whether this increases...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program aims to investigate the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The $546,350 award, which begins on January 13, 2025 and runs through October 31, 2029, will fund research to: (1) define the chemical interactions that mediate neuronal uptake and accumulation of PFAS, (2) elucidate the neurotoxic...
This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports research to investigate the ovarian disrupting effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on female reproductive health and fertility. The $561,584 grant awarded to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, will integrate in vivo, in vitro, and in silico models to study how exposure to PFNA, a widely used...
This $229,100 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to investigate the occurrence and health effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure among U.S. volunteer firefighters.
The study aims to (1) assess the prevalence, predictors, and exposure sources of PFAS in this population, and (2) examine associations between PFAS levels and dyslipidemia (imbalanced...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $499,454.23 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) to develop edible sorbent therapies that can mitigate dietary exposures to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as "forever chemicals". The project aims to create multicomponent sorbents derived from naturally occurring or generally recognized as safe...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $1,968,864 to Purdue University to conduct research evaluating and comparing the neurotoxic effects of exposure to various per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), including legacy PFOA and replacement chemicals PFBA and GenX. The research aims to characterize the impact of low-dose developmental PFAS exposure on...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $488,349 to the University of Southern California (USC) to conduct research examining the association between exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and the risk of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in youth with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The project aims to prospectively investigate the link between PFAS exposure and...
This $478,503 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports research to investigate the impact of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children.
The award will leverage the existing GUSTO mother-child cohort in Singapore to conduct comprehensive assessments, including proton magnetic resonance...
