This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $3,811,559 to the University of Massachusetts to conduct a study on using wearable devices and AI techniques to develop digital biomarkers for early detection of Alzheimer's disease. The key objectives are to: Deploy consumer wearables for sleep, heart rate, and activity monitoring in a cohort of older adults with elevated genetic risk for Alzheimer's to quantify device accuracy and develop...
The National Institute on Aging awarded a $835,056 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866) to Trustees of Tufts College (Tufts University) to develop a multi-modal system of wearable biosensors and advanced analytics for continuous monitoring of mobility and cognitive function in an aging population. The project aims to create a flexible, breathable, and inconspicuous sensor system (Aim 1) that can provide real-time data on biophysical domains like gait, posture, and heart rate. Building on this sensor...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) provides $811,228 to B.A. Maze, Inc. to develop an "At-Home Health Station" (AHS) technology platform. The AHS is designed to simplify digital health experiences and provide remote patient monitoring capabilities for individuals living with cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease/related dementias.

This National Institute on Aging (NIA) Project Grant award under CFDA 93.866 Aging Research provides funding of $499,758 to Aster Labs, Inc., a minority-owned small disadvantaged business, to develop an automated system for detecting and reporting lapses in activities of daily living (ADL) for individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. The project, titled "AUTOMATED SYSTEM FOR DETECTING AND REPORTING LAPSES IN PERFORMANCE OF ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING FOR INDEPENDENT AND...
This $780,466 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop digital biomarkers that can monitor brain health and detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias using single-channel sleep electroencephalography (EEG) recorded from wearable headband devices. The overarching goal is to create accurate predictive models that can assess pathological brain aging, cognitive decline, and Alzheimer's-related biomarkers based on...
This federal Project Grant award of $4,188,630.00 from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) supports research to develop innovative methods for early detection and monitoring of cognitive changes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The project, titled "Ahead of the Curve: Early Detection and Monitoring of Learning Decrements in Alzheimer's Disease," will leverage web-based cognitive testing to explore diminished learning...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging's Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) provides $367,056 to The University of Iowa to develop a low-cost framework for screening, evaluating, and predicting outcomes for individuals with Parkinson's disease. The project aims to leverage commercially available activity trackers and computer vision technology to provide a holistic assessment of both motor and cognitive symptoms associated with Parkinson's. The key objectives are...
