$3,040,961
NIH/NHLBI
This mechanistic randomized controlled trial (R01 HL165115; NCT06041581) seeks to determine if our modernized collaborative care intervention for insomnia improves biological factors (systemic inflammation, autonomic dysfunction, metabolic dysregulation, and proinflammatory gene expression) thought to explain how insomnia promotes cardiovascular disease and if these improvements are due to positive changes in sleep mechanisms.

6/1/21-5/31/24
$425,537
NIH/NIMH
This pilot randomized controlled trial (R21 MH127206; NCT04721067) seeks to evaluate the effects of an internet cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) called Sleep Healthy Using The Internet (SHUTi) on biomarkers of systemic inflammation and monocyte activation in virologically-suppressed, HIV-positive adults with insomnia disorder.

$74,948
Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (UL1TR002529)
This pilot case-control study, funded by a 2021 Collaboration In Translational Research (CTR) award, seeks: (1) to assess whether recovered SARS-CoV-2 patients, versus controls, have elevated psychiatric symptoms,greater subclinical cardiac/vascular abnormalities, and increased biomarkers of systemic inflammation and coagulation 6-12 months post-diagnosis and (2) to examine whether inflammatory/coagulation biomarkers are positively associated with psychiatric factors and subclinical cardiac/vascular abnormalities.
Role: Principal Investigator (Multi-PI)
