- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) $436,001 on August 5, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a feasibility study examining neuroinflammation as a therapeutic target in heart failure-related cognitive decline. The study will enroll 12 patients ages 50–75 with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction and possible mild cognitive impairment. Researchers will use...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) $2.017 million in project grant funding on March 15, 2026, to develop and validate cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging as a neuroinflammatory biomarker for Alzheimer's disease. The award operates under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The funded research addresses the absence of disease-stage-specific neuroinflammation...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded New York University $3.053 million on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct longitudinal research on caregiving networks and their consequences among adults ages 85 and older. The award funds the ARIC CARES study, embedded within the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study cohort. The research will characterize care ecosystems and relational coordination (teamwork) among family caregivers, paid caregivers, and...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Research Foundation For The State University of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) $129,288 on September 17, 2025, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop natural language processing and speech processing techniques for analyzing occupational exposure data and predicting cognitive decline in World Trade Center responders. The research develops and applies NLP methods to extract occupational exposure variables from...
- The National Institute on Aging at the Department of Health and Human Services awarded $429,262 to The Research Foundation For The State University of New York (Stony Brook University) on February 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866, Assistance Listing Project Grant R21AG093544). The award funds research into ciliopathy features in mouse models of Down syndrome. The project examines how trisomy 21 disrupts ciliary function in the brain's ventricular system, which is critical...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded the University of Rochester $188,445 on August 5, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a randomized controlled trial evaluating dyadic life review therapy for distressed caregivers of older patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and advanced cancer. The study will enroll 60 dyads of patients aged 65 and older with clinical impressions of AD/ADRD (including mild cognitive impairment) and stage III or IV cancer,...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded New York University $6.203 million on September 15, 2025, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to examine peripheral immune markers and vascular dysfunction as contributors to cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease. The research integrates circulating biomarkers—platelet aggregation, neutrophil activity, and proteomic data—with advanced imaging to assess associations between vascular and immune dysfunction and cerebrovascular burden, amyloid...
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention awarded The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) $230,155 on September 1, 2026, under the CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance program (CFDA 93.283) to investigate dynamic PTSD-related cognitive risk in aging World Trade Center responders. Performance occurs in New York. The award runs through August 31, 2028. The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York functions as...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded Visiting Nurse Service of New York $1,271,742 on September 15, 2025, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a Stage II trial expanding the Virtual Caregiver Coach for You (ViCCY) intervention to caregivers of home health care patients with concurrent heart failure and cognitive impairment. The project enrolls 254 caregivers supporting patients with heart failure and cognitive impairment from home health care in New York City, plus at...
The National Institute on Aging awarded The Research Foundation for The State University of New York (operating as Stony Brook University) $557,764 on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a prospective cohort study examining cognitive and physical consequences of caregiving for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The Stony Brook Caregivers Research Study (SBCARES) will assess cognitive fluctuations in 120 older caregivers aged 60 years and older and 120 age- and sex-matched non-caregiver controls using ecological momentary assessment, a smartphone-based cognitive measurement protocol capturing short-term cognitive fluctuations and their reversibility. The study will measure caregiver and recipient-related characteristics alongside individual-level factors including education, seasonality, and social connections. The investigators will establish validity of novel digital biomarkers—multisensory integration and vocal biomarkers—to predict longer-term cognitive decline in caregivers, with these assessments conducted at home to reduce participation barriers. The award extends from September 1, 2026, through June 30, 2031, with performance at Stony Brook, New York. The Research Foundation for The State University of New York serves as the prime recipient, with Stony Brook University executing the research as a child entity within the SUNY system research administration structure.
