This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $460,844 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct the "LIFE-COURSE ACCULTURATION TRAJECTORIES AND DEMENTIA IN A MULTI-ETHNIC COHORT OF OLDER ADULTS: THE MESA ACCULTURATION AND DEMENTIA STUDY". The study aims to leverage longitudinal data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) to identify unique life-course acculturation patterns among...
This $2,288,528 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), aims to improve cross-national measurement of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and characterize its longitudinal course across diverse populations in the U.S., Mexico, and India. The study will harmonize MCI and dementia diagnoses, compare MCI prognosis, and investigate sociodemographic, lifestyle, health, and biological risk factors associated with MCI and dementia across...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) totaling $205,030 provides funding to the University of Miami to conduct research on the associations between neighborhood environments across the life course and Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD) outcomes among Hispanic older adults born in and outside the U.S. The key objectives of this study are to: 1) characterize life course neighborhood social and built environment exposures...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $311,341 to the University of Southern California to assess cost and non-cost barriers to the use of novel Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementia (ADRD) therapeutics among older Hispanic or Latino adults. The project involves two main phases. The first phase will conduct semi-structured interviews with a cohort of Latino adults and Latino patients with AD/ADRD and their caregivers to...
This $6,226,692 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research (CFDA 93.866) program supports research examining the role of neuronal hyperexcitability and proteostasis in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study aims to use a mouse model to investigate how modifications in brain activity, specifically in the locus coeruleus (LC) and hippocampus (HPC), can lead to the pathological hallmarks of AD. Key objectives include tracking early...
This $1,010,230 Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research), supports research to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a culturally-adapted mindfulness-based program (MBP) for Latinx older adults at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). The Washington University is leading this R61 research project, which aims to address disparities in AD burden among Latinx communities through a new MBP intervention tailored to their specific...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $2,451,044.00 to investigate the impact of labor force participation and stimulating activities on cognitive aging outcomes across diverse international settings. The lead awardee is The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The project aims to evaluate cross-country differences in labor force participation, engagement in stimulating activities, and their relationships with...
This $2,365,042 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct research on the biological underpinnings of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The research aims to better characterize the interplay between biological markers of neurodegeneration, vascular, nutritional, and inflammatory systems, and their interface with social and economic factors, by leveraging cross-national comparisons...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under CFDA 93.866 Aging Research program provides $622,401 to the University of Southern California (USC) to conduct research on causal modeling of brain biomarker changes related to Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The project aims to: 1) fit novel deep learning models to predict cerebrospinal fluid and PET-derived amyloid load from diffusion MRI data in symptomatic vs. pre-symptomatic individuals; 2)...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $125,373 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct research on the genetic association between Alzheimer's disease and cardio-cerebrovascular risk factors. The key objectives are to 1) identify genes that interact with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factors to confer Alzheimer's disease risk, and 2) identify epigenomic and transcriptomic...

This $839,262 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support a multilevel investigation into the effects of migration on the risk of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) among Mexican Americans. Conducted by the Trustees of Columbia University, the study will leverage a unique binational dataset to (1) estimate the impact of migration, US residence, and acculturation on cognitive function and dementia risk, (2) evaluate how immigration policy climates and social contexts modify these effects, and (3) assess the embodiment of migration-related stressors through biological pathways. The award period runs from September 1, 2024 to May 31, 2029 and aims to provide novel insights into the multilevel drivers and mechanisms underlying the relationship between migration and ADRD risk within this population.
