- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), will fund a research project to investigate how environmental exposures such as temperature, greenspace, and the built environment influence cognitive function and dementia risk. The $5,164,012 award to the University of California, Davis will support a study using data from the Nurses' Health Study II and Rush University cohorts to estimate the links between...
- This $3,264,260 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under CFDA 93.866 (Aging Research) aims to determine whether olfactory impairment caused by exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution is a causal factor in the development of late-onset dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. The award will fund a comprehensive research project conducted by the University of Maryland, Baltimore to investigate the role of the cGAS/STING/IKK2/NF-κB inflammatory...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a $131,813 Project Grant to the Trustees of Boston University (Boston University Medical Campus) on May 1, 2025. The grant aims to evaluate the effects of poverty alleviation policies, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), on the risk and disparities of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD). The research will leverage data from the Health and...
- This $2,107,715 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the Regents of the University of Michigan aims to determine the extent to which exposure to hurricanes affects mortality among older adults living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The project will: 1) Examine all-cause mortality following hurricane exposure and identify associated causes of death among the ADRD population; 2) Determine the living environments...
- This federal Project Grant award for $2,557,260 from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research program) will fund a study titled "Lifecourse Predictors and Mechanisms of Early Clinical ADRD among Black and White Adults in their Sixties". The study aims to investigate the transition from midlife to early late-life and identify the earliest manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Alzheimer's disease-related disorders (ADRD) in a diverse population. The research...
- This $2,365,042 Project Grant was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.866) to conduct research on the biological underpinnings of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). The research aims to better characterize the interplay between biological markers of neurodegeneration, vascular, nutritional, and inflammatory systems, and their interface with social and economic factors, by leveraging cross-national comparisons...
- This $4,260,300 project grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute on Aging will fund research under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to investigate the association between in utero environmental exposures and life-course cognition and prodromal Alzheimer's disease in midlife. The Public Health Institute will leverage existing data and biospecimens from the 50+ year follow up of the Child Health and Development Studies birth cohort to conduct targeted and...
- This Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute on Aging will fund research totaling $4,188,512 to the University of California, Davis from September 2022 through August 2025. The grant is part of the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), which supports biomedical, social, and behavioral research on aging processes and diseases affecting older populations. Specifically, the University of California, Davis will investigate the hypothesis that ultrafine particulate...
- The National Institute on Aging (NIA), under the Aging Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.866), awarded a Project Grant in the amount of $4,035,962.00 to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) on September 15, 2025. The grant is titled "Examining Unique Markers and Risk Factors for AD/ADRD in Foreign- and Native-Born Older Chinese Americans: A Study of Social Determinants of Health, Sleep Patterns, Neuroimaging, and Plasma Biomarkers." The project aims to...
The Project Grant titled "The Role of Neighborhood Social Exposome Dynamics in Risk and Resilience to Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias" was awarded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA), under CFDA Program 93.866 - Aging Research. The $3,039,714 grant, with a performance period from September 15, 2025 to September 14, 2029, will investigate the pathways between 30 years of neighborhood-level social exposome change, individual modifiable Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) risk factors, and late-life cognitive/brain health outcomes. The project will leverage data from three NIA-funded cohorts to explore how dynamic changes in the social determinants of health at the neighborhood level impact ADRD risk and prevention. The University of Montana, the awardee, will utilize its research capabilities in environmental monitoring, public health, and interdisciplinary scientific investigations to conduct this comprehensive study on the role of the social exposome in ADRD risk and resilience.
