The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $292,368 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program to the Regents of the University of Michigan. The grant, effective September 1, 2024 through March 31, 2026, will support research to "disentangle the drivers and dangers of toxic cyanobacteria biosynthetic heterogeneity in cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs)." The goal is to identify the effects of...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $459,353 to the University of Toledo to conduct research on the discovery and characterization of novel cyanotoxins produced during harmful cyanobacterial blooms. The key objectives are to: 1) optimize high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with native fluorescence detection and mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for structural...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $200,230 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program to the University of South Carolina. The grant funds research to characterize the atmospheric transformation of harmful cyanobacterial algae (HABs) and investigate the mechanisms of pulmonary toxicity from inhaled HAB aerosols. The project will utilize an environmental chamber to produce and analyze transformed HAB aerosols, which will then be...
This Project Grant award of $400,847.00 was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The award aims to investigate the role of noradrenergic signaling and its regulation by the locus coeruleus neurons in mediating the impact of developmental lead exposure on stress responses and associated behavioral disorders like anxiety and depression. The project, conducted by Louisiana State University,...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $704,695 to The Roskamp Institute, Inc. to investigate the neurological effects of aerosolized red tide neurotoxins. The primary goals are to determine the dose-response relationship between aerosolized exposure to the neurotoxin brevetoxin and the development of neurological symptoms, as well as whether individuals with preexisting...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports research to define the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The $546,350 award, effective January 13, 2025 through October 31, 2029, aims to characterize the mechanisms by which PFAS affect brain development and function. Key objectives include defining PFAS uptake...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program provides $379,504 to the University System of New Hampshire's Keene State College to conduct research on the tissue-specific development of toxicity in response to transgenerational chronic arsenic exposures. The key objectives are to: (1) detect tissue-specific uptake of arsenic in response to transgenerational chronic exposure; (2)...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113) will fund research at Northern Kentucky University (NKU) to investigate the use of maternal and offspring exercise as a means to mitigate the developmental neurotoxicity effects of prenatal exposure to benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a known carcinogen and environmental pollutant. The $140,000 award, which runs from September 2023 to August...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, provides $1,270,796 to The Ohio State University to conduct research on the relationship between prenatal exposure to air pollution and childhood social anxiety symptoms. The 5-year study will examine how prenatal exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), a class of neurotoxic air pollutants, can contribute to the development of social...
The National Institutes of Health National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences awarded a $924,612 Project Grant to the California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The grant will fund research from August 2022 to July 2025 to advance chemical risk assessment and predictive toxicology through the development, validation and integration of high-throughput mechanistic in vitro assays. Specifically, the grantee will...
