This $127,623 federal Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), aims to test the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs) to prevent goal disengagement in response to weight regain following behavioral weight loss treatment. The award recipient, Drexel University, will randomly assign 120 adults who have lost at least 5% of their weight...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) totaling $224,088 will support research to investigate the physiological regulation of energy intake at meals following weight loss. The funded project, led by Dr. Ezpeleta at the University of Colorado-Denver, will analyze energy balance and gut hormone data from two existing clinical studies (the ARROW Study and the...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a $1,057,905 Project Grant under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota. The award, with a period of performance from April 15, 2025 to March 31, 2032, will support a comprehensive research program to promote weight-related health and address social determinants among the next generation of adolescents and young adults (Generation Z). Key elements of the program include...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will provide $171,450.00 to investigate the biological mechanisms linking excess body fat (adiposity) and elevated blood lipid levels, and their combined impact on cardiovascular disease risk. The research, led by Dr. Dron, a computational geneticist, aims to: 1) measure how adiposity interacts with genetic variants to influence lipid levels, 2)...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) will provide $642,343 to American University to conduct research on the effects of federal funding for obesity prevention programs on weight-related health behaviors, obesity prevalence, and obesity-related chronic conditions. The project will leverage variation in which counties and...
This Project Grant award of $111,750.00 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847) will fund a study to optimize a weight-neutral intervention to improve health among adults with higher body weight. The study, conducted by The Miriam Hospital, a non-profit hospital in Providence, Rhode Island, will pilot test combinations of evidence-based weight-neutral components,...
This $250,000 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will support research at Colorado State University to investigate the role of maternal gut microbiome and inflammation in preeclampsia and subsequent cardiometabolic disease in offspring. The key research aims are to: 1) Determine if the maternal gut microbiome contributes to pro- or anti-inflammatory short-chain fatty acid signaling at the...
This federal Project Grant award of $674,300, issued by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research, supports a 3-phase study to examine the system-wide implementation of new flexibilities to the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs (NSLP/SBP). The primary goal is to describe the impact of NSLP/SBP policy changes and flexibilities across multiple levels, and identify ways to improve the effectiveness and equity of...
This $117,750 Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837) will fund a study investigating the prospective associations between neighborhood environment features and physical activity, as well as weight status, across different age groups. The study will leverage data from five existing NIH-funded studies to efficiently examine long-term impacts over 5-15 year periods. Key objectives include...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $422,894 to Miami University to investigate the interactive effects of cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity on the recovery of impaired glucose control and vascular function following a period of reduced physical activity. The research aims to: 1) examine how existing health status impacts the recovery of impaired glucose control after...
