This federal Project Grant award of $1,250,934.00, issued by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), supports a multi-scale systems analysis of the metabolic and mechanical determinants of cardiac reserve power output. The research plan uses computational modeling of whole-body cardiovascular function, driven by a multi-scale model of myocardial metabolism and mechanics, to analyze data from phenotyping assessments...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), provides $452,181 to develop and evaluate an exercise-based frailty intervention called "XFIT" for lung transplant candidates. The project aims to establish the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of the remotely-delivered XFIT program, which integrates exercise training and behavioral strategies to address frailty in this...
This Project Grant award from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.837), will fund a postdoctoral research project to examine the role of resistance exercise in the prevention and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The $117,789 award will support Dr. McDonough, an exercise science and public health researcher, in conducting cohort studies and a feasibility clinical...
This $345,799 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc) in Boston, MA. The grant aims to identify molecular determinants of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) by integrating genomic, proteomic, and functional data from the NIH's MOTRPAC study, which is the most comprehensive effort to date to study human exercise. Specifically, the...

This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) under the Cardiovascular Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.837), will support research investigating 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 $422,894 award to Miami University will fund a 3-year project to: 1) examine how existing health status (fitness and body composition) impacts the recovery of impaired glucose control after a period of reduced physical activity, and 2) determine the role of vascular function as a mechanism underlying this process. The project will also expose undergraduate students to biomedical clinical research methods. Preliminary data indicates that low fitness and/or high adiposity can impair the recovery of glucose control following short-term physical inactivity. The research aims to provide insight into the interactive, cardiometabolic effects of physical activity patterns and health status.
