Health Research INC

The following awards highlight a few of the new sponsored projects that health research, inc has received funding for during the reporting period: enhancing reviews and surveillance to eliminate maternal mortality this award supports the capacity for developing and implementing data-informed strategies to prevent pregnancy-related deaths and reduce disparities among disproportionately impacted populations by improving data availability and quality to better identify and characterize pregnancy-related deaths and related health inequities. this award will also support agencies and organizations that coordinate and manage maternal mortality review committees to identify and characterize pregnancy-related deaths for prevention. expanding drug checking services across new york this award supports community-based sites to test drug samples for toxic additives and provide harm reduction interventions to hard-to-reach populations that use drugs. the data collected in the community will be used to implement and expand the new york state drug surveillance program. surveillance of spina bifida across the lifespan this award funds the development of population-based surveillance of individuals of all ages with spina bifida living in the fourteen counties in new york state with active birth defect surveillance programs to estimate prevalence, mortality, and survival of all age groups. hri/nysdoh will develop a new spina bifida surveillance framework comprised of cases identified using state birth defects surveillance program (nys birth defects registry) information and linked to records from clinics, hospital inpatient and outpatient data, medicaid data, vital records data, and the national death index. outcomes of this project include an increased availability of spina bifida (sb) data to inform clinical care and public health materials, programs and interventions. an improved understanding among public health and clinical researchers and providers on sb prevalence, age-specific mortality, and cause of death. also, improved accuracy and efficiency in sb case-finding, reporting, and outcome predictions. development of polymer-based cell culture substrates for correlative light and electron microscopy (clem) this award will provide previously unavailable polymer-based indexing-patterned substrates and enable imaging technology of correlative light and electron microscopy (clem) for convenient applications in structure-function studies to address questions in cell biology, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicines. these substrates can also serve as the scaffold for 3d growth in cells and organoids that recapitulate in vivo-like morphology and function, leading to better understanding of diseases at molecular, subcellular, cellular, tissue, and organoid levels.
