- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (93.173), will fund a clinical trial to investigate the use of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and attention-focused language treatment to improve attention, language, and reduce post-stroke fatigue in individuals with aphasia. The total award amount is $760,283, with a project period...
- This $428,883 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173) aims to examine the effects of individualized transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) on phonological short-term memory performance in chronic stroke survivors with aphasia. The key objectives are to identify optimal tACS targets, frequency, and electric field coverage based on...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), provides $457,935 to study the effects of combining continuous theta burst stimulation (a type of transcranial magnetic stimulation) with a modified form of constraint-induced language therapy to treat mild post-stroke aphasia. The primary recipient, The Trustees of the University of...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $429,000 Project Grant under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173) to The Medical College of Wisconsin, Inc. The grant is for a research project titled "Precision Neuromodulation in Post-Stroke Aphasia". The overarching goal is to enhance language recovery and quality of life for stroke survivors with aphasia by combining semantic feature...
- This Project Grant award of $505,740.07 was provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The grant will support research using high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) guided by electrophysiology and diffusion tensor imaging to treat verbal retrieval deficits secondary to chronic traumatic brain injury. The project aims to...
- This Project Grant award of $108,512 was provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders grant program (CFDA 93.173). The grant supports research to understand how the brain's anatomical network structure and connectivity influence language production and recovery in individuals with post-stroke aphasia. The research utilizes Network Control Theory (NCT) to model brain regions...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $425,814 Project Grant under the "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173) program to Northeastern University. The grant is for a 2-year project from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027 to establish the preliminary efficacy of a smartwatch-based ecological momentary intervention (EMI) for improving word retrieval in post-stroke aphasia patients. The EMI will deliver...
- This federal Project Grant award of $404,212 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under CFDA Program 93.173 (Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders) aims to investigate whether Aphasia Identification (ID) cards can improve unfamiliar communication partners' comprehension of individuals with aphasia. The award will fund a randomized controlled trial enrolling 160 service workers to evaluate the impact of Aphasia ID cards on the...
- The Project Grant award, titled "Exercising Language: Behavioral and Neurophysiological Changes After High-Intensity Exercise Training in Post-Stroke Aphasia", is funded by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The $702,315 award, effective May 15, 2025 through April 30, 2030, will support a study evaluating the effects of high-intensity physical exercise...
- This federal Project Grant award of $679,182, provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), supports the development of new computational models that leverage multimodal neuroimaging and demographic data to predict post-stroke aphasia and language recovery. The key objective is to build an interpretable, modular platform that can identify effective treatments and...
This $1,202,905 Cooperative Agreement award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) federal grant program, will fund a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. The trial will compare the effects of auditory-visual speech therapy combined with active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) versus speech therapy with sham tDCS on treating chronic aphasia in stroke patients. This 5-year project, beginning September 1, 2025, aims to provide definitive level 1 evidence on the potential benefits of tDCS as an adjuvant treatment for chronic aphasia, an area where current evidence is limited. The award will support the University of South Carolina, a public research university with extensive experience supporting federal government needs through contracts and grants in scientific research, technology development, and specialized consulting.
