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...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $441,529 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) on November 15, 2024. The grant supports research to elucidate the role of epitranscriptomic mechanisms, specifically N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification, in regulating astrocyte activation and neuroimmune dysfunction induced by chronic exposure...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $682,698 to Florida A&M University (FAMU) to investigate the mechanisms of manganese-induced neurotoxicity mediated through the protein Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2) in microglia. The 5-year project aims to elucidate how manganese exposure increases LRRK2 expression and kinase activity in microglia, leading to...
This Project Grant award of $400,847.00 was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The award aims to investigate the role of noradrenergic signaling and its regulation by the locus coeruleus neurons in mediating the impact of developmental lead exposure on stress responses and associated behavioral disorders like anxiety and depression. The project, conducted by Louisiana State University,...
This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) provides $164,561.00 to the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) to study the potential mediating role of cytokines and DNA methylation in the association between prenatal exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and the development of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. The research aims to:...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, is providing $728,408 to investigate genetic factors that influence susceptibility to pesticide-induced Parkinson's disease. The research aims to biologically validate novel candidate gene variants identified through prior epidemiological studies. The project involves two complementary research approaches: 1) evaluating the effects...
This Cooperative Agreement award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), provides $4,422,126.00 in funding to the Regents of the University of Michigan to conduct research on the impact of exposure to toxic metals, such as lead, cadmium, and arsenic, and their interaction with genetic susceptibility in driving the development of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The key objectives of this 5-year project are to:...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $159,200.00 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on the role of oxidation-reduction (redox) signaling in normal neurodevelopment and the sensitivity of developing neurons to environmental exposures that can induce oxidative stress. The research aims to characterize redox signaling during...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports research to define the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The $546,350 award, effective January 13, 2025 through October 31, 2029, aims to characterize the mechanisms by which PFAS affect brain development and function. Key objectives include defining PFAS uptake...
This $398,838 Cooperative Agreement award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, supports research at North Carolina State University to investigate the neurodevelopmental effects of exposure to flame retardant chemicals. The key objectives are to: 1) assess the impacts of developmental exposure to the flame retardant mixture Firemaster 550 on dopamine, oxytocin, and vasopressin receptor expression...
