The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) has awarded Swarthmore College a $356,178 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program. The grant, with a period of performance from December 19, 2024 to November 30, 2026, will support research to determine the context of use for ToxCast Phase I chemicals and their potential impact on the developing brain. The project will utilize planarian behavioral screening to investigate the toxicity of...
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $546,350 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) federal grant program to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (RF SUNY) to define the neurotoxic and neurodevelopmental health risks of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The key objectives of this 4.8-year research project are to: 1) characterize the mechanisms by which PFAS are taken up and accumulated in neurons, 2)...
This Project Grant award, identified as R01ES036325, was provided by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program. The grant, totaling $728,408.00, aims to biologically validate novel genetic variants associated with increased susceptibility to pesticide-induced Parkinson's disease. The research will be conducted using two complementary systems: human dopaminergic neuronal cultures derived from induced...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports a research study to investigate the effects of developmental exposure to the pyrethroid pesticide deltamethrin on autism-relevant behaviors and molecular pathways in the prairie vole. The $605,550 award to the University of Toledo, with a project period from May 1, 2025 to February 28, 2030, will assess dose-dependent changes in the prairie...
This $404,989 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program will fund research to investigate the mechanisms by which nanoplastic particles may be transported into the brain via the olfactory system. The research team from The Pennsylvania State University will conduct in vivo studies in mice to examine nanoplastic uptake and transport in the olfactory system, as well as in vitro experiments to...
