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, provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program, supports research on the role of albumin and other serum factors in the accumulation and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the body. The $385,219 award, with a project period from May 2025 to February 2030, aims to determine whether albumin is a key factor for PFAS distribution, elimination, and...
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 $260,993 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports Framergy Inc., in collaboration with Texas A&M University, in developing a novel at-home test kit for detecting a broad range of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water. The project leverages Framergy's expertise in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and visible light-activated peroxydisulfate to enable complete...
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 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $143,331 to Wayne State University to investigate the impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure on male reproductive health. The project aims to use single-cell RNA sequencing and characterize epididymosomes (extracellular vesicles) to understand how PFAS mixtures affect spermatogenesis and sperm epigenetics. The...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $1,118,078 to Wayne State University to investigate the impact of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure on preterm birth and intrauterine growth retardation. The key objectives are to: 1) Examine how PFAS exposure leads to decreased interferon signaling and placental toxicity, 2) Analyze changes in placental glycoprotein...
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 University of California, Davis has been awarded a $423,657 Project Grant (CFDA 93.113 - Environmental Health) from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) to study the impact of neonatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on the microbiota-gut-brain axis. The research aims to determine if neonatal PFOA exposure leads to long-term deficits in the microbiota-gut-brain axis, including impacts on gut physiology and behavior, as well as whether...
This $478,503 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports research to investigate the impact of prenatal exposure to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) on the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children. The award will leverage the existing GUSTO mother-child cohort in Singapore to conduct comprehensive assessments, including proton magnetic resonance...
