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 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, will fund research at Wayne State University to investigate how exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impacts placental health and susceptibility to infection-mediated preterm birth. The $1,651,801 award, effective September 5, 2024 through June 30, 2029, will allow the principal investigator, Dr. Petriello, to study how PFAS...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113), provides $474,639 to North Carolina State University (NC State) to conduct research on the health effects of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) mixtures. The project aims to develop innovative spatial and tensor-based causal inference methods to enhance the understanding of PFAS exposure and its impacts on population health....
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $121,057 to Trustees of Boston University (doing business as Boston University Medical Campus) to conduct a prospective study investigating associations between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) mixtures and pregnancy outcomes among Black women. The research aims to: 1) evaluate the association of a PFAS mixture with adverse...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $390,337 to develop the "PFAS Exposure Burden Calculator" - a standardized tool for quantifying cumulative exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a class of "forever chemicals" linked to adverse health effects. The award will enable the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to extend...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $561,584 to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to study the ovarian disrupting effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on female reproductive health. The research aims to elucidate the mechanisms by which PFAS exposure, particularly perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA), interferes with ovarian...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded Wayne State University a 3-year, $1,644,161 Project Grant under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) to study the effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on atherosclerosis and cholesterol metabolism. The project aims to determine if PFAS mixtures accelerate atherosclerosis in a mouse model, assess how PFAS disrupts bile acid reuptake and leads to increased cholesterol levels, and evaluate the...
This $478,503 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports research to investigate the impact of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children. The award will leverage the existing GUSTO mother-child cohort in Singapore to conduct comprehensive assessments, including proton magnetic resonance...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $499,454.23 to the University of Massachusetts to develop edible sorbent therapies that can effectively reduce exposures to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from dietary sources. The project aims to derive multicomponent sorbents from naturally occurring or generally recognized as safe materials, and validate their ability to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (CFDA 93.113 Environmental Health) provides $157,500 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to pilot studies on the potential link between prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk. The research aims to examine how PFAS exposure during development may interact with genetic factors to influence fetal neurodevelopment and...
