- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $5,343,452 to the University of Texas at Austin to investigate the benefits of remotely-supervised neuromodulation in treating the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia (LVPPA). The project aims to enhance the effectiveness of proven language treatment for LVPPA, which is characterized by a gradual decline in language abilities typically caused by Alzheimer's disease pathology, by...
- This $310,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will support research by Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) to examine how alternative polyadenylation (APA) of mRNAs contributes to the development and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The project has two main goals: 1) to identify APA genes and pathways associated with AD pathology using computational analysis of existing single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets, and 2)...
- This federal Project Grant award of $4,591,694.00 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop and validate an Alzheimer's disease-specific speech profile using automated speech analysis. The objective is to improve early detection and monitoring of Alzheimer's disease by leveraging existing and newly collected longitudinal speech samples from culturally and educationally diverse populations. The project will use machine learning algorithms to identify...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) provides $770,644 in funding to the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA) to establish the Center for AD/ADRD Population Aging and Social Studies (CAPAS).
