    Description

    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for research focused on the neuropathological interactions between COVID-19 and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRD). This initiative invites proposals for studies utilizing animal, cell culture, and human tissue models to investigate how COVID-19 affects cognitive decline in individuals with existing ADRD, accelerates ADRD pathology, and exacerbates neurological outcomes in those at risk. The funding opportunity aims to enhance understanding of the long-term neurological implications of COVID-19, with a total funding amount of up to $3.75 million available for up to five awards, each capped at $500,000 per year for a maximum of five years. Applications will be accepted starting September 4, 2024, with a final submission deadline of October 5, 2024.

    The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for research investigating the neuropathological interactions between COVID-19 and Alzheimer’s disease-related dementias (ADRD). This initiative invites applicants to propose studies utilizing animal, cell culture, and human tissue models to explore mechanisms by which COVID-19 affects ADRD. Key objectives include examining how COVID-19 impacts cognitive decline in those already affected by ADRD, accelerates ADRD pathology, and exacerbates neurological outcomes in individuals with pre-existing ADRD. The funding opportunity is set to provide up to $3.75 million, supporting up to five awards, with budgets capped at $500,000 in direct costs per year for a maximum of five years. The application submission window opens on September 4, 2024, with a final deadline of October 5, 2024. Various organizations—including higher education institutions, nonprofits, and foreign entities—are eligible to apply, but clinical trials are not permitted under this initiative. The overarching aim is to advance understanding of the long-term neurological implications of COVID-19, contributing to public health knowledge and informing future interventions for ADRD.
