This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) aims to develop advanced MRI techniques to directly assess cerebral microvascular pulsatility on widely available 3T MRI systems. The $4,692,540 award to Northwestern University will fund research to evaluate cerebral microvascular pulsatility as a potential biomarker for cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), which is a major contributor to strokes and dementia. The project, running from August 2024 to...
This $1,246,362 project grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to Rush University Medical Center aims to elucidate the morphology and compositional changes of the perivascular pia mater (PVS PIA) in the human brain across aging and Alzheimer's disease. The 3-year project will leverage clinical and pathological data from the Rush Religious Orders Study and Memory and Aging Project to map PVS PIA anatomy using advanced microscopy techniques. Key...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to create an inter-Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (ADRC) set of objectively measured cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers from large and diverse clinical cohorts. The $790,491 award will fund the development and validation of novel deep-learning methods to accurately quantify SVD biomarkers, including cerebral microbleeds, white matter...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $640,906 to the University of Wisconsin - Madison to elucidate cerebrovascular disease pathways contributing to cognitive decline. The 5-year project, effective June 1, 2025, aims to leverage advanced neuroimaging techniques to characterize dynamic vascular and hemodynamic factors, such as intracranial vascular stiffness and neurovascular flow tone, that may impact brain tissue integrity and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) totaling $2,317,887 will be used by Indiana University Indianapolis to map paravascular cerebrospinal fluid (PCSF) signatures associated with healthy aging, aging with hypertension, and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The researchers will leverage dynamic diffusion-weighted imaging, a novel neuroimaging technique, to quantify PCSF dynamics and volume near major arteries - a key component of the glymphatic...
This Project Grant award of $4,361,625.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research program) supports a multi-institutional effort led by the Washington University to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and vascular contributions to dementia (VCID). The project leverages three key resources: a large collection of cerebrospinal fluid samples, human brain tissue specimens, and advanced neuroimaging analytical pipelines. The...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $136,778 to Wake Forest University Health Sciences to conduct research on the impacts of cerebral small vessel disease on brain networks and cognitive impairment. The key research objectives are to: 1) use advanced brain network modeling to quantify the resilience and disruption caused by cerebral microbleeds, 2) develop an integrative machine learning model to improve prediction...
The National Institute on Aging awarded a $4.6 million Project Grant to Cornell University under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop new imaging techniques for measuring microvascular blood flow in Alzheimer's disease and related dementia models. The award will support the design of an adaptive excitation source for 2-photon and 3-photon fluorescence microscopy to simultaneously measure blood flow speeds in approximately 300 cortical or 50 deep white matter microvessels. This...
