- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $344,164 project grant to Northwestern University to develop "M4: Modules on Advanced Methodology When Modeling Multinational Data." The primary objectives are to: 1) create a training program in large-scale data analysis for the next generation of researchers, 2) instruct trainees on protective behavioral and social factors related to Alzheimer's disease and related dementias...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $372,904 to The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio to advance cross-national research on aging and cognitive function. The 5-year grant, awarded on September 20, 2025, supports an annual program that recruits, trains, and mentors 16 post-graduate participants dedicated to mastering Down syndrome (DS) clinical research. The program offers hands-on DS clinical...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) provides $759,352 to investigate how shifts in microglial metabolism impact the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and whether targeting metabolic flux can reduce AD-related pathology. The research aims to elucidate the role of lactate, a byproduct of glycolysis, in regulating immunometabolism and microglial activity in the context of AD. The 5-year award, starting on May 15,...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $131,813 Project Grant to the Trustees of Boston University (Boston University Medical Campus) on May 1, 2025. The grant aims to evaluate the effects of poverty alleviation policies, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), on the risk and disparities of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD). The research will leverage data from the Health and...
- This Project Grant award of $758,744 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) supports research to investigate the mechanistic link between tau signaling and blood-brain barrier dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The objective is to establish a mechanism-based intervention targeting amyloid-beta and tau to repair blood-brain barrier dysfunction and slow cognitive decline in AD models. The research will be conducted by the University of Kentucky Research...
The University of Kentucky Research Foundation was awarded a $418,309 Project Grant by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) on August 15, 2025 under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to establish the Kentucky Postbaccalaureate Alzheimer's Disease (KYPAD) Research Education Program. This program will provide an intensive research experience for recent biomedical and behavioral science graduates to prepare them for advanced degree programs focused on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Trainees will work on ADRD research projects in labs at the University of Kentucky, interact with faculty and other trainees, and engage in professional development activities. The program aims to expand the pool of scientific talent dedicated to ADRD research and address a critical shortage of researchers in this field.
