- The National Institute on Aging, under the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded $467,181 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The award funds research investigating how a life history of physical trauma contributes to aging and markers of aging, including inflammatory response and epigenetic markers, using African killifish (Nothobranchius furzeri) as a model organism. The research will...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded New York University $705,405 on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate how changes in nuclear physical properties during cellular senescence drive transcriptional and splicing dysregulation characteristic of aging. The funded research measures nuclear biophysical properties across multiple length scales using a toolkit including genetically encoded multimeric nanoparticles (nucGEMS, 40–50 nanometers), newly...
- The National Institute on Aging, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $149,190 on August 6, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which NBR2, a long non-coding RNA, contributes to ovarian aging. The research addresses female-specific health conditions through genome-wide association studies and functional genomic studies in human ovarian cell models. The...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded New York University $708,137 on February 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop and validate technologies for probing the biophysical properties of aging cells. The funded work centers on developing genetically encoded multimeric particles (GEMs) as high-throughput microrheology probes to measure the physical properties of cell interiors—particularly within organelles including the nucleus, cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum,...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $450,200 on May 15, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to map age-dependent changes in primary sensory neurons and nociceptors. The recipient will deliver a systematic, cell-type-resolved map of how normal aging remodels peripheral sensory neurons housed in the dorsal-root ganglion (DRG). The project employs subtype-specific labeling via a recently published molecular-genetic...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $392,543 on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate genetic regulators of microglial NF-kappa-B signaling in Alzheimer's disease. The award funds research into how genetic protective and risk factors for Alzheimer's disease regulate human microglial pro-inflammatory responses to oligomeric amyloid-beta. The project examines the genetic modifier SH3RF3,...
