- The National Institute on Aging awarded $691,763 to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (doing business as Shirley Ryan AbilityLab) on August 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to evaluate the effectiveness of a wearable hip airbag equipped with a stroke-specific pre-impact fall detection algorithm in older adults with stroke. The project will assess whether the wearable airbag accurately deploys during falls, reduces hip injuries, decreases fear of falling, and...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded Mayo Clinic $729,906 on September 3, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate the neurobiological substrates of falls in cognitively unimpaired older adults. The research uses dual-task paradigms that simultaneously engage motor and cognitive brain systems to characterize subclinical gait impairment patterns among cognitively unimpaired individuals who experience falls. The study assesses how gait impairment relates to...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $748,772 on September 20, 2025, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop and deliver novel educational programs increasing adoption of the NIH Stage Model in behavioral intervention development. The recipient will create a free, asynchronous online Foundations Course delivering 12 hours of learning modules on the NIH Stage Model to an unlimited number of learners. The program will...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded the University of Maryland, Baltimore $649,688 on May 15, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop microinstrumented cortical organoid therapy for chronic stroke treatment. The award funds research on brain organoid transplantation combined with flexible bioelectronic monitoring to enable real-time electrophysiology and intravital multiphoton imaging of implanted organoids in stroke-damaged adult brain tissue. Current stroke...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded Hebrew Rehabilitation Center $318,000 on August 18, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a pilot study of home-based dual-task gait assessment in older adults at risk of dementia. The project will recruit 60 ambulatory adults aged 65 and older—30 with mild cognitive impairment and 30 age- and sex-matched controls—to use a smartphone-based gait application for daily assessments in their homes over a two-week baseline period,...
- The National Institutes of Health Office of the Director awarded Florida Atlantic University $225,735 for Project Grant R01AG108198 on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The project develops artificial intelligence models that use smartphone video to assess fall risk in older adults through analysis of the Timed Up and Go test, a clinical assessment of gait and balance. Aim 1 creates 3D pose estimation models integrating biomechanical constraints,...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded Colorado State University $231,000 on September 1, 2026, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct a pilot clinical trial assessing the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy signal of a real-life dual-task training intervention for older adults at risk of falling. The study compares a six-week real-life dual-task training intervention (REAL-DTT) with an evidence-based fall prevention intervention (FallStalk). REAL-DTT delivers...
- The National Institute on Aging awarded the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research $728,093 on September 20, 2025, under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop, deliver, and evaluate a short-term curriculum training behavioral intervention researchers in the NIH STAGE model.
