- This federal Project Grant award of $931,568.00, awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113), aims to identify environmental factors contributing to the rising rates of mental-emotional-behavioral (MEB) disorders in urban-dwelling children and parental postpartum depression (PPD) in Southern California. The key products and services to be delivered under this 5-year project include: Examining the effects of...
- This $781,268 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (CFDA 93.113 Environmental Health) will fund research at the University of Southern California to investigate the cardiovascular health impacts of environmental exposures to heat stress and wildfire smoke over the life course. The 5-year study, running from June 2025 to April 2030, will leverage the MetaAIR2 cohort of 400 young adults to examine how these exposures, both independently and jointly,...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $646,476.00, was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113). The overarching goal of the research is to understand how environmental chemicals, such as inorganic arsenic, trigger deregulation of the epigenome that can resist epigenetic reprogramming in germ cells and become heritable. The award supports a study leveraging a model of germ cell reprogramming based...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), will support research to investigate the impacts of metal exposures on the microRNA (miRNA) composition of human breast milk and the resulting effects on early childhood growth and adiposity. The $763,965 award, which will run from May 2025 to February 2030, will be provided to the Trustees of Dartmouth College to conduct this work...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), will support research on the impact of wildfire exposure on the human methylome and health. The project, totaling $567,093 and running from March 2025 to March 2027, will utilize a cohort of 5,000 adults in the East Bay area of Northern California to: 1) develop comprehensive wildfire exposure assessments, 2) collect additional...
This Project Grant award of $431,386, provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) through the Environmental Health federal grant program (CFDA 93.113), aims to evaluate the relationship between early-life exposures to extreme weather-related factors, such as extreme temperatures and air pollution, and the risk of pediatric thyroid cancer. The study will utilize a large, nested case-control design within a statewide California birth cohort, examining 1,326 children diagnosed with thyroid cancer between 1988-2021 and 66,300 matched controls. The research will leverage rich environmental geospatial data and innovative statistical and bioinformatics methods to investigate the potential role of these environmental exposures in the increasing incidence of pediatric thyroid cancer, which has doubled from 2000 to 2019. The award has an expected completion date of August 31, 2027.
