- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award provides $160,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral fellowship investigation into how sleep facilitates the integration of new and existing memories. The goal is to understand the brain mechanisms that enable this integration process, which is critical for building knowledge from new information encountered in daily life. The study will use electroencephalography (EEG),...
- This $850,000 Project Grant award, funded jointly by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems and Division of Information and Intelligent Systems under CFDA 47.070 Computer and Information Science and Engineering, supports research to understand how sleep and memory are connected in the brain. The project will use long-duration, high-resolution recordings of neuronal activity to observe changes in synaptic connections during sleep and memory tasks,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $457,860 to the University of California, Irvine to conduct research on how memory consolidation is influenced by multiple nights of sleep. The project aims to examine how memory benefits change over time and with multiple sleep events, determine if sleep plays a prolonged role in retaining the weakest memories, and reveal constraints on multi-night memory...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $619,000 to the University of Utah to examine how the brain processes and consolidates different types of memories. Specifically, the research will investigate how learning across memory domains with similar structures (e.g., motor sequence learning and object sequence learning) can be leveraged to improve long-term memory formation. The project utilizes...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's $150,000 Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2026 to translate insights from sleep biology to improve continual learning in artificial neural networks. The University of California San Diego will study multi-phasic sleep patterns across the honeybee brain using electrophysiological experiments. This will inform computational models of sleeping neural networks to enhance deep...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $1,836,071 Project Grant under the 21st Century Cures Act - Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative (CFDA 93.372) to the University of Chicago. This 3-year grant will fund research to parameterize the relationship between motor cortical reactivation during sleep and motor skill acquisition in freely behaving marmoset monkeys. The project aims to develop a more nuanced model of...
- This $202,401 Project Grant was awarded to Furman University by the National Science Foundation's Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) on August 15, 2023. The funding supports a research project titled "RUI: Mechanisms of Memory Consolidation in Offline Wakefulness," which investigates how short periods of waking rest can improve memory consolidation, similar to the process that occurs during sleep. The project aims to deepen the understanding of memory and identify ways to...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) awarded Northeastern University $532,152 on May 1, 2025 to conduct research on the neurocognitive development of learning in adolescents. The project aims to investigate the cognitive and brain mechanisms related to learning from experience, and how these change from childhood to adolescence and young adulthood. Using behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $125,000 Project Grant under its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), for a collaborative research project titled "EAGER: Deep Learning-Based Multimodal Analysis of Sleep." The two-year project aims to develop a multimodal machine learning approach to simultaneously monitor and process electroencephalogram (EEG) data and animal behavior...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $332,602 Project Grant to the University of Texas at Austin under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The award will support research from October 2021 through September 2022 to study the relationship between habitual sleep quality, neural activity in episodic memory networks, and episodic memory performance across the adult lifespan. A diverse sample of 90 young, middle-aged, and older adults without...
