This federal Project Grant award of $561,584 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to investigate the ovarian disrupting effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on female reproductive health and fertility. The key research objectives are to: 1) use mouse models to study how the PFAS compound perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) at human-relevant exposure levels impacts ovarian follicle...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $546,350 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF SUNY) to define the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The key objectives of this 4.8-year research project are to: 1) characterize the mechanisms by which PFAS are taken up and accumulated in neurons, 2)...
This $695,853 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to examine the impact of prenatal and postnatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on children's development. The project leverages three existing cohorts to investigate how prenatal PFAS exposures affect placental molecular regulation and subsequent growth and developmental outcomes in children, as...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program provides $229,100 to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to conduct research on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposures and their association with dyslipidemia (abnormal blood lipid levels) among U.S. volunteer firefighters. The key objectives are to: (1) assess the prevalence, predictors, and potential exposure...
This $1,632,022 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Superfund Hazardous Substances Basic Research and Education program (CFDA 93.143) supports the Southern California Superfund Research and Training Program for PFAS Assessment, Remediation, and Prevention (SHARP). The goal of this 5-year program is to develop scientific knowledge and innovative technologies to address per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) water contamination...
This $499,454.23 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program aims to develop edible sorbent therapies to mitigate dietary exposures to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as "forever chemicals." The project seeks to create multicomponent sorbents derived from naturally occurring or safe materials that can effectively reduce PFAS exposures from the diet. Key activities...
This is a Project Grant award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the Assistance to State Water Resources Research Institutes program (CFDA 15.805). The $553,787 award to the University of Rhode Island (URI) Research Office Division is for a 3-year project to improve understanding of the fate and impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) transported through the atmosphere and their contribution to PFAS contamination in surface waters. Key project activities include: 1)...
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 $591,846 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The funding supports the development of a novel class of granular sorbents by Sorbenta Inc. that can selectively remove per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from complex water sources. The key objectives are to enhance the regenerability of the sorbents, investigate their compatibility to treat a range of...
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 a prospective study on the impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) mixtures on pregnancy outcomes among Black women. The $121,057 award will fund a study to evaluate the association between PFAS mixtures and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as spontaneous abortion, preterm birth, and small for gestational age...
