- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences supports research at the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying speech production. The project aims to generate a functional map of the brain systems that enable fluent speech, with the goal of improving diagnosis and treatment of speech production deficits. The $965,471 award, effective August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026,...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $550,299 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to Trustees of Indiana University, doing business as Indiana University, to conduct research on the transfer of statistical learning from speech perception to production. The project aims to understand the mechanisms by which the brain coordinates listening and speaking, even when changes are subtle and not consciously identifiable. Preliminary data...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences provides $245,398 to support research estimating articulatory constriction place and timing from speech acoustics under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The award funds development of a speech inversion tool to recover details of articulatory movements from acoustic speech recordings using machine learning methods. Researchers will extend...

The grant falls under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in these fields as well as monitoring science resources. Under this award, Michigan State University will build infrastructure for collecting longitudinal speech...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $123,618 to the University of Maryland, College Park to conduct research investigating the impact of experimental language research on participants. The project aims to explore how experimental linguistics studies can be leveraged for public engagement, by examining participants' perceptions of language and linguistics and testing whether improved science...
- The University of Southern California will receive $1.2 million under a four-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct research on structured variability in vocal tract articulation dynamics during speech. The grant is part of NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program, which supports research and education in all areas of computing, communications, and information science and engineering. Through May 2027, USC researchers will use advanced magnetic...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), supports the development of speech technology infrastructure and corpus phonetics research for low-data languages. Awarded to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY) on September 1, 2025, with a total obligation of $101,674.00 and completion date of August 31, 2027, the project...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $109,799 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Florida Division of Sponsored Research. The grant supports a collaborative research project to use sensing technology and automated speech recognition to capture teacher language interactions in diverse pre-K classrooms. The project aims to provide insights into how preschool language experiences shape children's language...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences provides $124,539 to support research examining the links between perception and production of second language speech sounds over time. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the two-year award to the University of Texas at Austin will lay the foundation for developing a comprehensive model of second language sound learning. Researchers will train...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences grant awarded to the University of Oregon provides $249,957 from September 15, 2023 to August 31, 2026 to study how language and speech motor processes, such as speech-related breathing, interact during speaking. The project aims to advance psycholinguistic theory and understanding of communication disorders by examining the relationship between language planning and breathing patterns in both school-aged children and adults. Researchers will analyze spontaneous speech samples, measuring breathing movements and inhalation patterns, and relating these physiological factors to linguistic characteristics of the speech. The goal is to determine whether factors like discourse structure and language habits provide a better explanation for inhalation patterns than traditional factors like syntactic complexity. The research team will also develop a publicly available corpus of spontaneously-produced speech annotated for inhalation data that can support further investigations. In addition, the project includes science education and undergraduate research components to promote cross-disciplinary training.
