- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), provides $456,500.00 to the University of Southern California (USC) to investigate the biological effects of prenatal exposure to wildfire smoke on fetal and infant growth. The key objectives of this 2-year study are to: 1) Examine how prenatal exposure to wildfire smoke triggers biological responses that can be measured through...
- This R21 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $433,950 to the University of California, Davis to study the impact of wildfire smoke exposure on lung injury and disease in pediatric populations. The key objectives are to: 1) Define the contribution of age on the toxicity of wood smoke particles in respiratory and alveolar epithelium, 2) Investigate the effect of early life wood...
- This federal 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 on the impact of wildfire exposure on the human methylome and health. The project, totaling $567,093 and running from March 2025 to March 2027, will utilize a cohort of 5,000 adults in the East Bay area of Northern California to: 1) develop comprehensive wildfire exposure assessments, 2) collect additional...
- This $213,284 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program will support research to investigate the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in mediating the health effects of wildfire smoke exposure, particularly in individuals with asthma. The key objectives are to examine whether EV release and content associated with the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) pathway differentiate the...
- This $781,268 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (CFDA 93.113 Environmental Health) will fund research at the University of Southern California to investigate the cardiovascular health impacts of environmental exposures to heat stress and wildfire smoke over the life course. The 5-year study, running from June 2025 to April 2030, will leverage the MetaAIR2 cohort of 400 young adults to examine how these exposures, both independently and jointly,...
- This Project Grant award of $132,651.00 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.113), will support research on the impacts of prenatal and early-life air pollution exposure on pubertal development in girls and boys. The key products and services to be delivered through this 5-year grant include: 1) Investigating associations between air pollution exposure before conception, during pregnancy, and in...
- This $431,750 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports research to characterize the physicochemical properties and toxicological impacts of particulate matter (PM) generated from wildland-urban interface (WUI) fires in Los Angeles. The two-year project conducted by Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey will: 1) Perform detailed physicochemical analysis of PM0.1 and...
- 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 a national study on the impacts of outdoor fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) composition and oxidative potential on cardiorespiratory morbidity and mortality. The $741,154 award to Colorado State University will fund the deployment of a low-cost measurement network to quantify PM2.5 oxidative potential across the...
- This $409,687 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), will support a study to assess the impact of wildfire smoke and heat on cognition, mood, and the human metabolome in a vulnerable older population, specifically those with Parkinson's disease (PD). The research will leverage a large existing case-control study of PD patients and community controls in California's Central...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), part of the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), will support research to evaluate associations between prenatal exposure to wildfire smoke particulate matter (PM2.5) and early life airway health outcomes in children under 24 months of age. The $155,500 award to the University of Washington will fund a 2-year study across nationwide ECHO program cohorts to: 1) assess risks of airway symptoms and respiratory infections related to average smoke PM2.5 and days with elevated smoke PM2.5 during pregnancy; 2) explore how exposure intensity, duration, and timing during pregnancy impact these risks; and 3) identify vulnerable sub-populations. This research aims to address the growing public health threat of wildfire smoke exposure and its potential impacts on prenatal and early childhood respiratory health.
