UT Dallas Researchers Receive $3.7M NIH Grant to Study Brain Aging
Researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas have received a $3.7 million NIH grant to expand their study on brain aging. Led by Dr. Kristen Kennedy and Dr. Karen Rodrigue, this groundbreaking research will utilize advanced 7-Tesla MRI technology to investigate cognitive and brain health across a 14-year span. The study aims to uncover metabolic factors influencing healthy aging and cognitive decline, with implications for Alzheimer’s disease and overall public health.
