This Project Grant award of $687,343 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) Federal Grant Program supports a multi-site study to investigate the relationship between climate change-related extreme weather events and children's acute and chronic health outcomes. The study aims to: 1) Estimate associations between extreme weather like high temperatures, heatwaves, heavy rainfall, and acute adverse health events in children; 2) Investigate the relationship between cumulative exposure to extreme weather and development of chronic health conditions during childhood; and 3) Quantify disproportionate impacts on children based on socioeconomic and infrastructure vulnerabilities in their residential neighborhoods. The project will leverage data from the PEDSnet research consortium, which includes over 12 million children, and link it with geospatial measures of extreme weather to advance scientific understanding of the scope, magnitude, and inequities of children's health outcomes related to climate change. The award was made to Drexel University, a private research university, and the project will be conducted from September 2024 through August 2025.
