- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $366,985 to the University of South Florida (USF) to develop the USF Health Expanding Research in AD/ADRD (ERA) Post-Baccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP). The program aims to train a cohort of post-baccalaureate students with limited research experience to transition into Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) research-focused doctoral programs. Led by Professors Paula C....
- 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 federal Project Grant award of $428,410 was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866). The grant is funding the Research and Education in Alzheimer's Disease and Dementias Initiative for Equity (READDIE) program at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine (WFUSM). The READDIE program is designed to facilitate postbaccalaureate trainees' entry into and completion of PhD programs in Alzheimer's disease and related...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) provides $705,385 to Northeastern University to conduct a large-scale study investigating mediators and moderators of executive function training in older adults. The study aims to improve the rigor and reproducibility of research on cognitive plasticity in older adults, many of whom are at risk for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The study will collect data from 1,250 older adults aged 60+ to...
- 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 of $203,278.00, provided by the National Institute on Aging under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), will fund research to understand the behavioral and neurobiological mechanisms underlying age-related shifts in motivation and their impact on daily life activity participation in older adults. The research will employ a multilevel, multimodal approach, utilizing behavioral, psychophysiological, neuroimaging, and naturalistic assessment methods to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $423,500 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support research into the behavioral, electrophysiological, and pupil-based rhythms of attention and memory in young and older adults. The project will examine attention and memory performance concurrently with electroencephalography (EEG) and pupillometry, with a sample of 75 young and 75 cognitively unimpaired older adults screened for Alzheimer's disease pathology. The goal is...
- This federal Project Grant award of $2,631,670 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) supports a research initiative at The Washington University to investigate age-related deficits in episodic memory. The project aims to determine how aging distinctly affects the content and structure of memory representations, and how this relates to dysfunction in different brain networks based on susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease pathology. The research will utilize plasma...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $126,956.00 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on identifying mechanisms of adult neurogenesis in the aging brain. The key objectives of this project are to: Utilize single cell spatial transcriptomics to define the pathways of generating new neurons in aged neurogenic niches following transient, antisense oligonucleotide-mediated suppression of the PTBP1...
- This federal Project Grant award for $528,876, provided by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research), supports research to investigate the cis- and trans-genetic regulation of brain transcriptomics and proteomics associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD-related dementias (ADRD). The key goals of the project are to: Estimate genome-wide cis- and trans-acting quantitative trait loci (QTLs) effects for transcriptome-wide genes and proteome-wide proteins across 4 brain...
This Project Grant award, titled "Investigating Neurosciences, A Summer Program to Ignite Research and Education (INSPIRE)", is funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) with $215,998.00 and will be implemented from September 2025 to May 2030. The goal of this program is to create an immersive research education initiative that will attract undergraduate science majors to ultimately increase the number of early-stage investigators pursuing careers in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD) research. Key objectives include providing unique training to improve STEM degree attainment, fostering passion for research, and preparing participants with skills and confidence to pursue AD/ADRD research careers. The program will create a supportive research environment through staff/mentor training and intentional recruitment of high-quality speakers, educators, and discussants.
