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 $1,031,595 project grant from the National Institute on Aging, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, supports research under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The awardee, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will define the landscape and mechanisms of protein redox regulation during aging. Specifically, the Institute will systematically map cysteine oxidation networks in mouse tissues to determine their role in coordinating protein complex assemblies relevant to age-related...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a Project Grant totaling $2,283,522 to Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health on September 17, 2024 under the NIA's Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866). This 3-year project aims to evaluate the impact of a new Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) policy, the "80% Rule," on enrollment changes of Medicare-Medicaid dual eligible beneficiaries from non-integrated "look-alike" plans into integrated care...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $158,918 to Vanderbilt University to conduct a multi-omic study exploring the impact of lifestyle variation on immunological aging patterns. The study will focus on characterizing age-associated molecular phenotypes such as gene expression, DNA methylation, and clonal hematopoiesis in peripheral blood samples collected from subsistence-level populations (Tsimane, Turkana, Orang Asli) and a...
This $312,900 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) supports research to identify the genetic basis of extraordinary lifespan in a model organism, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The 5-year project aims to: (1) discover the genetic variants responsible for longevity in a naturally occurring long-lived C. elegans isolate, (2) analyze how natural variation affects lifespan and develop tissue-specific "aging...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $1,085,789 to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine to investigate the relationship between clonal hematopoiesis (CH), aging, and exceptional longevity. The key objectives are to: Determine the prevalence and mutational spectrum of CH, and its association with age-related diseases, in populations with exceptional longevity (centenarians and their offspring). Analyze longitudinal changes in...
This federal Project Grant award for $729,567, provided by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), will fund a study to investigate the causal impacts of two key childhood environmental conditions - school quality and infectious disease exposure - on adult health and mortality outcomes. The study aims to construct a novel dataset linking individual-level childhood environment factors to longevity, in order to examine how these modifiable conditions affect schooling,...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio is focused on investigating the impact of leptin modulation on healthspan and lifespan. The award, totaling $1,339,916 and spanning from September 2024 to July 2029, will assess whether aging-associated hyperleptinemia accelerates cellular senescence and impairs healthspan and lifespan, evaluate the effects of reducing leptin on cellular...
This Project Grant award, totaling $418,364.00, was issued by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Wake Forest University Health Sciences to conduct a comprehensive study on lifespan and biological aging across multiple nonhuman primate (NHP) species. The key objectives are: Generate the most accurate sex-specific lifespan and age-at-death distributions for 11 biomedically-relevant NHP species, and test the influence of factors like body size, age at reproductive...
This Project Grant award of $395,796 from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports research at Brown University to develop genetic, pharmacological, and dietary interventions that delay the onset and progression of age-related diseases. The key objectives are to: 1) Investigate the interconnectedness and hierarchical structure of the hallmarks of aging, such as loss of genomic integrity, activation of retrotransposons, and accumulation of lipid droplets; 2)...
