This $488,872.22 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to identify contributors to racial and ethnic disparities in child occupant safety. The primary objectives are to: 1) analyze population-level data to determine frequency of child restraint system use across racial/ethnic groups, 2) identify factors contributing to lower restraint use in...
This federal Project Grant award of $2,142,743.00 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), will fund research to quantify the effects of biomechanical risk factors on infant respiration. The goal is to significantly reduce infant mortality from Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) by understanding how factors like body position, product interaction, and feeding affect infant...
This $154,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The funding will support a research project titled "Parents' Safety Nets, Child Protective Services Involvement, and Child Outcomes" at Florida State University. The project aims to examine how the informal and formal support networks (safety nets) of families involved with child...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a 2-year, $458,397 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York. The funding will support research to characterize head control impairments in individuals with severe Cerebral Palsy (CP) and test the feasibility of a multi-session motor training program using a robotic neck brace to promote postural...
This $178,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports research to create early life phenotypes of very preterm infants. The goal is to use perinatal variables, such as reason for birth, intrapartum care, and neonatal presentation, to categorize infants into distinct phenotypes that can explain variation in later health outcomes, including...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $1,089,271 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to Wake Forest University Health Sciences (WFUHS) to implement and evaluate the COACH (Communities Aligned to Reduce Concussion and Head Impact Exposure in Youth Football) intervention program. The project aims to engage community stakeholders in co-designing and implementing evidence-based strategies to...
This National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Project Grant award of $275,197, issued on Aug 10, 2023, supports the development and evaluation of a novel, compliant low-profile prosthetic foot. The key objectives are to (1) design and test a family of layered low-profile prosthetic feet, (2) assess the biomechanical benefits of the layered low-profile foot with transtibial prosthesis users with short and long residual limbs, and (3) evaluate the biomechanical function...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) supports research on neural markers of developmental delays in premature and full-term infants. The $398,115 award will fund a longitudinal study to examine brain development trajectories and the link between brain development and developmental delays in preterm and full-term infants during the first...
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $301,304 Project Grant under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to the University of Illinois. The grant will fund research to quantify sex-specific musculoskeletal adaptations to wheelchair use in children and adolescents. Specifically, the project aims to establish relationships between sex-specific adaptations in glenohumeral muscle morphology, scapula shape, and...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to estimate the impacts of social safety net policies on neglect and physical abuse among young children. The $672,498 award, with a project period from September 1, 2024 to May 31, 2029, will use a novel safety net benefits calculator to comprehensively assess how major programs like EITC, CTC,...

The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) awarded a $306,776 Project Grant to Minnesota Healthsolutions Corporation to develop a novel dynamic headrest for child safety seats. The goal is to reduce head injuries in side-impact crashes, which disproportionately affect children compared to other crash directions. The company will build and evaluate a prototype system that uses a dynamic headrest to contain children's heads during side impacts, addressing limitations of current seat designs. This project aligns with the NICHD's Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), which supports research to understand complex biological systems and develop interventions across maternal, child, and adolescent health domains. The project will be executed over a one-year period from June 2025 to June 2026.
