Project Grant R01ES037335
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.113), is supporting research to investigate the long-term metabolic, vascular, and bone health effects of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) mixtures. The $463,850 award to Brown University will leverage the New England Family Study (NEFS) cohort to measure PFAS concentrations in stored pregnancy and...
- This federal Project Grant award, in the amount of $385,219, was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health grant program (CFDA 93.113). The award supports research at the University of Rhode Island to investigate the role of albumin and other serum factors in the accumulation and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The research aims to determine whether albumin is a key factor for PFAS distribution and...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), provides $546,350 to fund a study to "Define the Neurotoxic and Neurodevelopmental Health Risks of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)". The key objectives of this 4.5-year research project are to: 1) Characterize the mechanisms by which PFAS facilitate neuronal uptake and accumulation; 2) Elucidate the...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program, provides $695,853 to the Arkansas Children's Research Institute (ACRI) from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2029. The project will investigate the impact of prenatal and postnatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on children's development, examining the role of placental function and the potential protective...
- The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $390,337 Project Grant under the Environmental Health Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.113) to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to develop the PFAS Exposure Burden Calculator. This novel tool will enable cross-study harmonization, biomonitoring, and report-back for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure levels. The project, which runs from Jul 2025 to May 2030, will expand the existing PFAS exposure...
- This $313,372 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports the development of an environmental sensor for the detection of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). PFAS are a class of "forever chemicals" that have widespread contamination in the environment and pose significant human health risks. The funding will enable the awardee, Pearlhill Technologies LLC, to...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $3,121,590.00 and funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), supports research conducted by Duke University to investigate the impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure on placental function and fetal development. The key objectives of the research are to: 1) examine mitochondrial perturbations associated with PFBS (an emerging PFAS compound)...
- The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.113), awarded a $143,331 Project Grant to Wayne State University to investigate the molecular impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure on male reproductive health. The research aims to use single-cell RNA sequencing and analysis of epididymal extracellular vesicles to decipher how PFAS exposure affects spermatogenesis, sperm epigenetics, and overall...
- The University of Massachusetts Lowell received a $157,437 Project Grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), to study the urinary, biliary, and fecal excretion of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and the impact of dietary fiber. The project aims to investigate the extent of enterohepatic recirculation of PFAS, which contributes to their long half-lives and increased risk of adverse...
- The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $474,639 Project Grant under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113) to North Carolina State University. The grant is for a project titled "Spatial and Tensor Methods for Estimating the Health Effects of PFAS Mixtures", which runs from June 10, 2025 to March 30, 2029. The project aims to employ innovative spatial and high-dimensional causal inference methods to enhance understanding of the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.113), will support research at Brown University to investigate the impact of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on adult cardiometabolic disease. The $656,250 award, with a performance period from August 6, 2025 to May 31, 2029, will enable researchers to conduct an unprecedented assessment of 44 individual PFAS, as well as total PFAS, in biological samples from the New England Family Study cohort. This prospective research will estimate the effects of gestational PFAS mixtures and serum levels on birth outcomes, childhood growth, and adult cardiometabolic health. The findings aim to address critical gaps in understanding the long-term health impacts of widespread prenatal PFAS exposure.
