This federal Project Grant award for $1,499,606 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) will support research to characterize health outcomes and disparities in children born to individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD). The key products and services to be delivered through this 5-year grant include: Examining variation in the diagnosis of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) across 150 hospitals and identifying...
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) awarded The Washington University a 3-year, $2,337,729 Project Grant under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) to study the impact of prenatal opioid exposure on placental and fetal brain development. The project, titled "The Opioid in Pregnancy: Imaging of Oxygenation, Inflammation, and Development in Brain & Placenta" (OPIOID BPP), aims to define the longitudinal effects of prenatal opioid exposure on...
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Boston Medical Center Corporation a $2,573,346 Project Grant under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The 3-year grant, which commenced on September 1, 2023, will fund a prospective cohort study comparing 100 opioid-exposed pregnancies to 50 non-exposed controls. The study aims to: Compare serial microRNA (miRNA) signatures in opioid-exposed and control pregnancies using maternal plasma and placental tissue samples. The...
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) awarded Magee-Womens Research Institute and Foundation a $3,092,159 Project Grant under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279) to conduct a multimodal analysis of gestational health and placental injury in opioid-affected pregnancies. The goal is to investigate the direct impact of illicit and prescription opioids on placental development, differentiation, and function, focusing on the critical syncytiotrophoblast and...
This Project Grant award of $3,011,183 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), supports research to investigate the effects of maternal opioid use disorder (OUD) on the placenta-brain axis and associated neurocognitive outcomes in offspring. The University of Kentucky Research Foundation, the prime awardee, will utilize a systems biology approach to integrate phenotypic, functional, and genomic data from the...
This $181,675 federal Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The grant, titled "NICOTINIC MODULATION OF EXCITATORY SYNAPSE DEVELOPMENT IN THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX", will fund research to investigate the mechanisms by which nicotine exposure during pregnancy impacts the maturation of excitatory synapses in the prefrontal cortex. The grant, awarded to the University of Colorado-Denver, will...
This federal Project Grant award of $418,178 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to provide mechanistic insights into the neurobiological mechanisms by which maternal sensitivity is compromised by postpartum depression. Specifically, the University of Massachusetts (UMass), through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration, will use intersectional viral...
This $2,267,819 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs) will fund research by the University of Washington to characterize extracellular vesicle (EV) profiles in healthy pregnancies and those complicated by opioid use disorder. The goal is to identify biomarkers in placental EVs and fetal brain/central nervous system EVs that could predict an infant's risk of developing neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), will support a research project entitled "Optimizing Developmental Outcomes in Early Childhood After Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome." The $180,059 award, effective August 1, 2024, will fund a 5-year longitudinal study to assess the independent and moderating effects of positive childhood experiences (PCEs) and adverse childhood experiences...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), aims to investigate the impact of prenatal exposure to cannabis on childhood adiposity and cardiometabolic health outcomes. The $234,000 award, with a performance period from August 2024 to July 2026, will support a study using a well-characterized observational cohort in Colorado to measure the levels of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC) and...

This $6,439,263 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (CFDA 93.279 Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs) aims to determine the impact of maternal substance use on maternal immune activation, placental function, and offspring neurobehavioral development. The project will leverage the Healthy Brain and Child Development (HBCD) study to perform maternal immune profiling, placental and cord blood analysis, and novel neuroinflammation imaging on 400 pregnancies across 4 geographic sites. These biological measures will be linked to maternal phenotyping, child brain imaging, and behavioral assessments from 0-15 months of age. The grant includes sub-awards to the University of California San Diego, University of Minnesota, Oregon Health & Science University, and Washington University to facilitate sample collection, processing, and analysis. This research seeks to elucidate the mechanisms by which maternal substance use exposure during pregnancy adversely impacts child neurodevelopmental outcomes.
