This $688,904 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to investigate the mechanisms linking developmental manganese (Mn) exposure, dopamine dysregulation, and the increased frequency of ADHD diagnoses. The research, conducted by Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) and sub-awardees Purdue University and Vanderbilt University, aims to deepen the understanding of...
This Project Grant award, with a total funding of $441,529, was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The award supports research conducted by the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. to investigate the role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification in astrocyte responses and their impact on manganese neurotoxicity. The key objectives are to: (I) evaluate if chronic manganese...
This federal Project Grant award under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) provides $682,698 to Florida A & M University (FAMU) to investigate the mechanisms by which manganese (Mn) exposure induces neurotoxicity through the regulation of the Leucine-Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) protein in microglia. The project aims to elucidate how Mn increases LRRK2 expression and kinase activity, and how this leads to...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $650,875 Project Grant (CFDA 93.113 - Environmental Health) to the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) on August 6, 2024. The grant supports a 5-year research project titled "Driving Environmental Justice: Community Monitoring of Diesel Truck Emissions and Impacts on Asthma Morbidity in Immigrant Communities." The project aims to: 1) estimate the short-term health effects of black carbon exposure on...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $639,686 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program to the University of Cincinnati. The grant will fund a longitudinal study investigating the impact of fluoride exposure during critical developmental windows, from prenatal to early childhood, on cognition, neurobehavior, and brain structure in adolescence. The study will leverage existing resources from two well-characterized birth cohorts in...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program provides $224,900.00 to Emory University to investigate determinants of perinatal lead exposure, associations with preterm birth, and report research results back to the Atlanta African American maternal child cohort. The study aims to: 1) test the hypothesis that maternal lead levels are higher among those of lower socioeconomic status,...
This federal Project Grant award of $240,062 from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), under the Occupational Safety and Health Program (CFDA 93.262), supports research on the synergistic effect of chronic inhalation exposure to manganese fumes and occupational noise exposure, which can lead to hearing loss. The award was made to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF SUNY), a non-profit research administration organization that serves as...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $701,902 to conduct research on the link between prenatal exposure to air pollution and childhood social anxiety symptoms. The research will be carried out by The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, with the goal of identifying how prenatal exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) - a class of...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $704,695 to The Roskamp Institute, Inc. to investigate the neurological effects of aerosolized red tide neurotoxins. The primary goals are to determine the dose-response relationship between aerosolized exposure to the neurotoxin brevetoxin and the development of neurological symptoms, as well as whether individuals with preexisting...

The grant will fund research from August 2022 to July 2025 to advance chemical risk assessment and predictive toxicology through the development, validation and integration of high-throughput mechanistic in vitro assays. Specifically, the grantee will...

This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports the South African Manganese Environmental Neurotoxic Effects Research (SMELTER) study. The $585,531 award, with a performance period from September 1, 2024 to June 30, 2029, aims to examine the neurological health effects associated with manganese exposure in a cohort of over 800 South African residents. The study involves developing and validating assessment tools, measuring environmental manganese levels, and evaluating participants' motor function and cognitive performance. Key sub-awardees include researchers from Washington University, the University of Washington, and Wits Health Consortium in South Africa, who will contribute expertise in data analysis, environmental monitoring, and clinical assessments. This research project seeks to advance the understanding of how environmental manganese exposure can impact human health, particularly in populations living near industrial manganese smelters.
