This $429,504 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), funded under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, aims to characterize human exposure to microplastics during pregnancy. The research will leverage an existing NYU birth cohort study to measure and analyze microplastics in placental tissue samples, as well as investigate modifiable lifestyle factors and potential environmental sources of exposure. The overarching goal is to...
This Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $776,150.33 to the University of Massachusetts to investigate the relationship between exposure to the antimicrobial and endocrine-disrupting compound triclosan, pubertal hormones, the adolescent gut microbiome, and neurobehavior. The project aims to identify windows of susceptibility to triclosan exposure, assess the role of hormones in...
This Project Grant award for $637,553 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program will support research to assess the intestinal uptake, translocation, biodistribution, and toxicity of environmentally relevant micro-nanoplastics (MNPs) in both healthy and inflammatory bowel disease models. The research will involve developing and characterizing MNPs with gold cores and plastic shells, evaluating MNP...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program aims to develop methods to address the impact of unmeasured confounding in environmental mixture studies. The $218,862 award to The Trustees of Columbia University's Health Sciences Division will accomplish the following goals: (1) develop sensitivity analysis approaches to detect and assess the impact of unmeasured confounding on...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded this $558,380 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program. The grant funds the development of an integrated biomedical knowledgebase and geospatial data science ecosystem called the "Geospatial Knowledgebase for Exposomics (GEOSPACE)".
