The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) was awarded a $750,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to conduct collaborative research on individual variability in auditory learning. The research aims to develop a non-invasive device that integrates attention and neuromodulation to enhance second language acquisition, particularly for underserved communities. The multi-modal,...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $449,611 Project Grant to Gallaudet University for the "REU SITE: ASL-ENGLISH BILINGUAL COGNITIVE AND EDUCATIONAL NEUROSCIENCE TRAINING AND RESEARCH EXPERIENCE (ASL-ENGLISH BILINGUAL CENTRE)" program under CFDA 47.076 (STEM Education). This 3-year program will provide an 8-week intensive interdisciplinary research training experience for undergraduate students, with a focus on deaf and hard-of-hearing participants. Trainees will receive...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award to Georgetown University for $230,454 supports research to understand how children and adults learn language and visual patterns. The primary aims are to investigate the memory consolidation process by which specific sequence memories are integrated into broader grammatical patterns for language and visual information. The studies involve exposing participants to miniature...
This $250,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on the role of the cortico-striatal system in implicit sound category learning. The project aims to investigate how rhythmic presentation of new sound categories can engage the brain's implicit, reward-based learning system to enhance adults' ability to learn new speech sounds. Using a combination of behavioral tasks,...
The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to Boston Children's Hospital to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: NCS-FO: STUDYING LANGUAGE IN THE BRAIN IN THE MODERN MACHINE LEARNING ERA" from September 15, 2021 through August 31, 2025. This award will fund research into studying language acquisition and processing in the brain using modern machine learning techniques, advancing the NSF's STEM Education...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, awarded under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, will support research investigating the neurocognitive basis of arithmetic processing in deaf ASL signers compared to hearing non-signers. The project, totaling $930,271 over 3 years, will examine the impact of language modality and age of language acquisition on the cognitive and neural foundations of arithmetic reasoning. The research will compare early and late deaf ASL signers to hearing...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Integrative Activities (IA) program (CFDA 47.083), provides $216,154 to Kansas State University to study the impacts of auditory perceptual learning on working memory skills and cortical dynamics. The grant aims to examine how changes in the brain from auditory training influence memory performance, with plans to measure the effects of trained vs. untrained sounds on working memory fidelity, inhibition, and mental effort....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will provide $250,000 from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028 to New York University (NYU) to study the neural bases of bilingual language production. Through a series of magnetoencephalography (MEG) experiments, the project will examine how the brain processes the use of morphological rules in producing words across multiple languages. The research aims to characterize the...
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...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $802,000 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD). The grant funding will support a 3-year study to use behavioral and brain measures to investigate individual differences in auditory and written word inferencing skills among grade school children from low socioeconomic status homes. The goal is to identify factors...
