This National Science Foundation project grant of $625,000 will fund research into the brain network mechanisms underlying task-general cognition and intelligent human behavior from September 2022 to August 2025. Under the federal Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), Rutgers University, Newark will investigate how dynamic activity flows within cognitive control networks implement intelligent goal-directed behavior across diverse tasks. Researchers will utilize brain imaging and stimulation techniques to build and test computational models of how conjunctive activations and connectivity changes within these networks generate intelligent human performance. In addition, the award will support continued participation in the Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation program to enhance STEM outreach and diversity.
