This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) aims to investigate the effect of cognitive empathy training on the mental health, inflammation, and immune function of caregivers for individuals living with dementia. The $1,496,772 award to Emory University will fund a study that randomizes caregivers to either a 10-day cognitive empathy training program or a control condition. Key outcomes to be measured include caregiver burden, depression,...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a 2-year, $290,190 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866) to Florida Atlantic University (FAU) to conduct an exploratory study on the caregiver networks of older adults living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The study aims to apply social network analysis (SNA) to improve understanding of the real-world informal and professional caregiver networks that older adults rely on for day-to-day care. Key objectives include identifying how...
This $424,184 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Emory University supports a 4-year research project focused on Alzheimer's Special Care Units (SCUs) in nursing homes. The key objectives are to: 1) Examine disparities in access to SCUs among Black and Hispanic residents with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD); 2) Understand how differences in SCU access contribute to racial/ethnic disparities in ADRD health outcomes; and 3)...
The University of Rochester received a $1,092,079 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) to study the impacts of informal family caregiving on nursing home residents with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), as well as the associations between state Essential Caregiver (EC) programs and caregiving outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project aims to determine how family caregiving affects the health of nursing home residents...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $2,238,436 to study the social networks of nurse practitioner (NP) teams caring for patients with dementia and how these networks impact racial and ethnic disparities in patient outcomes.

The research aims to...
This National Institute on Aging (NIA) Project Grant (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) award of $12,847,914 to Emory University will support a multi-year study investigating genetic, socio-behavioral, and vascular risk factors associated with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) among the South Asian population in India. The project aims to: 1) Perform multimodal AD/ADRD phenotyping and genetic characterization across the disease continuum; 2) Investigate modifiable risk factors like...
This $1,277,367 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under CFDA Program 93.866 - Aging Research. The grant funds a 5-year study to investigate the transition from midlife to early late-life (ages 60-65) and the development of early clinical Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) among Black and White adults. The study aims to identify life course predictors and underlying mechanistic pathways, including the influence of cardiovascular disease risk...
This $2,365,042 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports research to better understand the biological underpinnings of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The award aims to leverage cross-national comparisons between the U.S. and India to evaluate biomarkers of neurodegeneration, vascular health, nutrition, and inflammation, and how they interface with social and economic factors. Key goals include classifying...
This Project Grant award of $691,130 from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) supports research to develop a methodological framework for examining individual- and group-level dynamics associated with information-seeking and care-seeking behaviors in in-person and digital contexts.

This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $1,030,776.00 to Emory University to conduct a longitudinal social network study on informal caregiving networks for 408 older adults with dementia. The study aims to assess the impact of caregiving network characteristics on the health and well-being of both caregivers and care recipients. The research will include up to 894 family caregiver informants and utilize the Social Vulnerability Index to ensure a diverse sample. Emory University has sub-awarded portions of the grant to the University of California, Los Angeles and The Ohio State University to contribute to the research. The project is scheduled to run from September 2024 through May 2029.
