- 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...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), will provide $719,892 to New York University to conduct research on the relationship between infant exposure to phthalates and bisphenols and reproductive development during the "minipuberty" period in the first six months of life. The project will enroll 480 infants in the ongoing NYU Children's Health and Environment...
- 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 to investigate the impacts of metal exposures on the microRNA (miRNA) composition of human breast milk and the resulting effects on early childhood growth and adiposity. The $763,965 award, which will run from May 2025 to February 2030, will be provided to the Trustees of Dartmouth College to conduct this work...
- This $5,453,538 Project Grant was awarded on September 15, 2025 by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), which administers the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113). The grant was awarded to New York University School of Medicine to investigate the accumulation of micro- and nanoplastic particles in mammalian tissues, including human exposure pathways, tissue deposition, and potential health impacts. Key objectives include quantifying MNP...
- 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)...
- This $756,318 federal Project Grant was awarded on June 3, 2025 by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), a division of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (CFDA 93.113 Environmental Health). The grant supports research at Wayne State University to investigate how polyethoxylated surfactants, a class of emerging environmental contaminants, impact metabolic health and the development of obesity. The research will use zebrafish models to comprehensively assess the role...
- 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 federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), supports a research project titled "AIR POLLUTION, MULTIDIMENSIONAL BEHAVIOR, AND NEUROIMAGING IN CHILDREN WITH NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS". The $249,000 award, with a period of performance from August 25, 2025 to July 31, 2028, will be conducted by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The project aims to...
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 $2,774,390 to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey to conduct research on the impacts of mycoestrogens, specifically the mycotoxin zearalenone (ZEN), on maternal and child health. The research aims to extensively characterize prenatal and childhood exposures to ZEN in a large, diverse U.S. cohort, and explore the associated mechanistic pathways and effects on child growth and development. The project leverages existing data and biospecimens from the Infant Development and the Environment Study (TIDES) cohort, which recruited pregnant women from 2010-2012. Key research activities include investigating the relationship between maternal ZEN exposure, hormone signaling, gestational weight gain, and infant size. This work seeks to advance the limited epidemiological research on the public health implications of widespread human exposure to this emerging environmental contaminant. The project period runs from September 2025 through September 2029.
