The National Institute on Aging awarded a $216,210 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center to investigate the potential of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a therapeutic intervention to improve neurovascular coupling and cognitive function in stroke survivors with post-stroke cognitive impairment. The project aims to comprehensively evaluate neurovascular coupling responses in stroke survivors with and without cognitive...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $159,000.00 to the University of Pittsburgh to examine the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial comparing the synergistic effects of strategy training plus acceptance and commitment therapy (ST+ACT) to strategy training (ST) alone for improving social participation, psychological flexibility, and well-being outcomes in community-dwelling chronic stroke survivors. The study aims to compare participant retention, engagement, intervention dose, fidelity, and satisfaction between the two intervention approaches. It also hypothesizes that ST+ACT will lead to significantly greater improvements in social participation, psychological flexibility, and well-being compared to ST alone, both immediately after the intervention and at 1-month follow-up. This research directly addresses priorities specified in the NIH Rehabilitation Research Plan and will provide critical pilot data to inform future large-scale clinical studies seeking to optimize social participation, well-being, and health for stroke survivors.
