- This federal Project Grant award from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (CFDA 93.837 - Cardiovascular Diseases Research) provides $422,894 to support research examining the interactive effects of cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity on the recovery of impaired glucose and vascular control following a period of physical inactivity. The award period is from April 20, 2025 to March 31, 2028. The key objectives of the project are to: 1) investigate how existing health status...
- This federal Project Grant award of $659,376 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to improve cardiometabolic health in mobility-impaired women through a meditative movement intervention. The project will implement and evaluate the effects of Tai Chi and Qigong, forms of low-intensity physical activity that can be done in a seated position, on reducing abdominal fat, stress, and associated factors like emotional eating and sleep quality in this population....
- This federal Project Grant award of $2,358,537.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports a research project titled "Epigenetic Aging, Cognitive Function and Exercise in Older Adults" at the University of Pittsburgh. The project aims to investigate the impact of exercise on epigenetic aging and its relationship to cognitive function, brain health, and Alzheimer's disease biomarkers in non-cognitively impaired older adults. The award period runs from...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), will support research to investigate the immunological and physiological mechanisms by which exercise can mitigate age-related skeletal muscle decline. The $190,374 award, effective September 1, 2025 through May 31, 2028, will enable researchers at Yale University to: Examine how mechanical stress-mediated activation of muscle stromal cells influences the inflammatory,...
- This $454,938 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) supports research to define the impact of exercise on the aging nervous system. The project, led by Rutgers, The State University, will leverage the C. elegans worm model to characterize how regular exercise protects the nervous system against age-related dysfunction, including neuronal hyperactivity similar to brain aging in mammals. The research aims to elucidate the molecular...
- This federal Project Grant award of $308,799.00 was provided by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310). The award supports a research project titled "Multi Omics Mapping of Exercise-Induced Interorgan Communication" at The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) with a period of performance from June 10, 2025 to May 31, 2026. The research project aims to...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) in the amount of $665,118 supports a study to examine the neural mechanisms underlying the benefits of aerobic exercise for advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) implants. The research will enroll 51 advanced PD patients with DBS to assess the impacts of voluntary and forced aerobic exercise on motor, cognitive, and dual-task performance. Neural activity...
- The Project Grant award, titled "Exercising Language: Behavioral and Neurophysiological Changes After High-Intensity Exercise Training in Post-Stroke Aphasia", is funded by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The $702,315 award, effective May 15, 2025 through April 30, 2030, will support a study evaluating the effects of high-intensity physical exercise...
- This Project Grant award of $110,726.00 from the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health (NIH) under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) aims to utilize data from the Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Consortium (MoTrPAC) to characterize the molecular aging of white adipose tissue and the potential impact of endurance exercise training, with a focus on sex-specific differences. The research project led by the Pacific Northwest National...
- This federal Project Grant award of $152,237.00 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The grant supports research to investigate neuromuscular adaptation to exercise in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The project aims to determine the neuromuscular adaptive response to endurance exercise training in AD mouse models before the onset of overt AD-like pathology. Key objectives include assessing mitochondrial...
This $442,590 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support a randomized controlled trial examining the effects of low-volume sprint interval training on cardiorespiratory fitness. The project, led by California State University San Marcos Corp, aims to provide evidence on the potential for this time-efficient exercise approach to improve fitness and address the significant public health issue of physical inactivity. The grant period runs from September 2025 to August 2028 and will evaluate the cardiorespiratory fitness outcomes of the low-volume sprint interval training intervention compared to standard moderate-intensity continuous training. The findings are intended to inform strategies for increasing physical activity and fitness, particularly among less active populations at elevated risk of chronic diseases and mortality.
