Mechanisms of Cognitive Fluctuations in ADRD Populations (R01 - Clinical Trial Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-NS-25-014 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. "Fluctuating cognition can occur in many types of dementia and is a core clinical feature of Dementia with Lewy Bodies. Cognitive fluctuations can last from seconds to days, are unpredictable (e.g., do not just occur in the evenings, as with sun-downing), and are associated with poor daily functioning for the patient. A number of small studies have suggested that cognitive fluctuations in subjects with dementia may be related to epileptiform discharges and impaired oscillatory activity on EEG, but it is not clear that these are the only facto...

Validating digital health technologies for monitoring biomarkers in ADRD clinical trials (R61/R33 - Clinical Trials Optional)
Funding Opportunity RFA-NS-24-026 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of this RFA is to enable partnerships between academics and companies that make wearable devices to validate their digital health technologies (DHTs) as digital monitoring biomarkers in ADRD populations. Applications will be required to optimize their DHTs in diverse patient populations from two or more early stage clinically diagnosed ADRD. Studies must demonstrate the accuracy of the digital markers to differentiate clinically meaningful features (such as sleep stage) and establish the longitudinal relationship between the features...
