This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, will support research investigating the impacts of environmental exposures, such as heat stress and wildfire smoke, on cardiovascular health over the life course. The $781,268 award to the University of Southern California will enable a longitudinal study of 400 young adults, analyzing how exposures from childhood to early adulthood affect the development of cardiovascular risk factors. The research will employ novel statistical methods to evaluate the role of personal lifestyle and neighborhood factors in modifying these environmental health effects, with the goal of informing targeted interventions to reduce long-term cardiovascular disease risks. The project period runs from June 23, 2025 to April 30, 2030.
