This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) provides $354,145 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to conduct a comprehensive longitudinal study of functional brain network changes across the mouse lifespan. The research will use awake resting-state fMRI to quantify changes in brain network organization, particularly system segregation, and relate these changes to behavior and cognition over time. Additionally,...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $689,525 Project Grant under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to New York University (NYU) to investigate the integration of cell-specific microstructure within long-range brain networks in the macaque monkey. The project aims to disentangle cell-type specific signatures of brain microstructure using in vivo MRI techniques and determine how these signatures vary across individuals. This work will contribute to a...
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a Project Grant (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) totaling $4,027,679 to the Trustees of Boston University, doing business as Boston University Medical Campus, to develop a digital cognitive health resource based on the Boston University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center. The project aims to collect longitudinal digital cognitive metrics, assess their relationship with vascular risk factors and neuroanatomic measures, and build machine learning models...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to New York University School of Medicine provides $254,250 to develop a biologically relevant multi-scale model of brain aging using advanced diffusion MRI (dMRI) techniques. The goal is to create a brain microstructure age framework that provides insights into the processes underlying brain aging and Alzheimer's disease/related dementias (AD/ADRD). The award period runs from Sep 15, 2024 to Jun...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) will develop three new multi-modal atlases based on data from the Human Connectome Project. The $1,554,682 award will: Create a new data-driven atlas of spatially overlapping weighted grey-matter functional networks, 2) Develop a new data-driven atlas of white matter tracts and their corresponding grey matter projection territories, and 3) Complete a semi-automated multi-modal atlas of human brain areas....
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research), aims to investigate the mechanisms of beta-amyloid (Aβ) and tau protein interactions via functional brain networks and how they relate to Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, longitudinal pathology accumulation, and aging. The $137,895 award, granted on Dec 3, 2024, will support the applicant to develop skills in advanced neuroimaging data analysis, statistics, AD pathophysiology, science communication,...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $441,612 and granted by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research), supports research to investigate the relationship between modifiable risk factors and digital cognitive markers for early detection of cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer's disease. The project aims to leverage digital assessments, such as digital pen and voice recordings, in the Framingham Heart Study cohort to monitor cognitive changes in relation to...
This $388,851 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to develop an independent aging research program focused on neuroimaging biomarkers and socioeconomic risk factors associated with cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) vulnerability. The principal investigator will examine how changes in brain functional and structural connectomes underlie cognitive aging trajectories and contribute to AD risk in cognitively normal...
This $385,612 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) will support a collaborative research project between the University of Wyoming and the University of Maryland, Baltimore. The overarching goal is to determine and predict changes in the prefrontal cortex microcircuit during healthy aging and Alzheimer's disease progression. The project will integrate empirical in vivo calcium imaging, computational simulation modeling, and calcium imaging-based...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $203,278 to Brandeis University to conduct research on the neurobiological mechanisms underlying daily life activity participation in older adults and its relationship to Alzheimer's disease pathology. The research will use behavioral, psychophysiological, neuroimaging, and naturalistic approaches to understand age-related shifts in motivation and neuromodulation that impact older...
