This $251,250 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, supports research to investigate the link between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and neurodegeneration in models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) involving the TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43). The research will characterize...
This federal Project Grant award, totaling $2,283,334, was provided by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866). The award was granted to the Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) to develop and validate a progressive murine model for traumatic brain injury (TBI)-induced Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (TBI-ADRD). The key objectives of this 5-year project are to: 1) Screen diverse mouse strains and TBI injury models to identify the optimal...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program, will fund research at the Augusta University Research Institute, Inc. (doing business as Georgia Health Sciences) to investigate the mechanisms linking traumatic brain injury (TBI) to subsequent neurodegeneration and dementia.

The $1,975,262 award will support a 3-year study testing the hypothesis that cerebral metabolic dysregulation activates meningeal innate lymphoid cells to perpetuate a chronic, pro-inflammatory cascade that culminates in neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment after TBI. The research aims to elucidate how astrocyte senescence and regulation of meningeal immune cells contribute to progressive neurological decline, with the goal of identifying potential therapeutic approaches to restrain chronic neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration following traumatic brain injury.
