This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $648,655 in funding to Miami University to investigate how childhood experiences, such as maltreatment and parenting quality, predict daily emotional reactivity to stress in adulthood. The research aims to inform the design of interventions to help people respond constructively to daily stress. The project builds on the long-running Minnesota Longitudinal...
This Project Grant award of $274,595 from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under CFDA 93.865 Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research supports research on the biological mechanisms linking childhood adversity and accelerated aging. The study aims to investigate how early life stress, including childhood maltreatment, may alter mitochondrial DNA and function, potentially increasing risk for stress- and age-related health...
This federal Project Grant award of $734,220.00, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), aims to investigate the impact of early life adversity on positive affect and its neural underpinnings. The University of Pittsburgh will conduct this research, which includes: Determining if there is a reduction in the behavioral persistence or intensity of positive affect for youth exposed to adversity. Examining if...
This Project Grant award of $458,177 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will fund research to leverage population-level data to inform prevention and treatment of adolescent depression following adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). The research aims to identify combinations of factors that most affect the association between ACEs and adolescent depression symptoms, using data from the Longitudinal Adolescent Brain...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $133,488 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to investigate the effects of early life adversity on the developmental trajectory of avoidance circuitry. The research aims to determine how cells within the basolateral amygdala that are sensitive to early life adversity drive brain-wide circuit reorganization underlying enhanced...
This $778,024 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) will support a 3-year longitudinal study to examine neurobiological and contextual factors that contribute to successful transition from adolescence to adulthood. The research team at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) will use fMRI, behavioral measures, and questionnaires to test hypotheses that neural reward sensitivity, tolerance...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) provides $304,240 to Haverford College to conduct research on the relationship between early-life stress and emotional regulation. The project aims to examine how adverse childhood experiences impact a neural marker of emotional reactivity, the late positive potential (LPP), in young adults. The research involves three related studies testing the ability...
This Project Grant award of $1,135,986, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), supports research to clarify suicide risk phenotypes among preteen youth aged 8-12 years old. The primary objectives are to: Adapt an existing measure of suicide risk for use with preteens, incorporating expert and stakeholder input to ensure cultural and developmental appropriateness. Use the new measure to establish phenotypes of...
This Project Grant award of $3,218,822.00 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants will fund a study to investigate social motivation as a risk factor linking childhood threat exposure and suicidal ideation and behavior in preteen girls. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will conduct the research, which aims to: 1) refine assessments of social motivation and suicidal thoughts/behaviors for preteen girls, 2) test whether...
This Project Grant award of $103,302 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) supports collaborative research at Marquette University aimed at understanding disparities in emotional resilience and mental health among mothers and their children facing high psychological, social, and cultural stress. The 3-year project will leverage an existing birth cohort study to examine how maternal...

This $183,750 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports a study on how dimensions of childhood adversity, such as deprivation and threat, impact affective skills in adolescents that are linked to stress vulnerability and mental health risk. The study will assess 200 adolescents aged 11-20 to investigate the associations between childhood adversity, interoceptive accuracy, emotional granularity, stress, and psychopathology through multimodal assessments. The research aims to establish sources of risk and resilience for youth exposed to adversity, with the potential to inform treatment and preventative interventions. The award includes providing in-depth research experience to students from underrepresented backgrounds in the biomedical workforce. The project will be executed by the Dominguez Hills Foundation, a non-profit auxiliary organization supporting California State University, Dominguez Hills.
