The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering awarded the University of Pittsburgh a 3-year, $350,000 Project Grant to develop an innovative closed-loop brain-computer interface (BCI) system for use in exposure therapy for socially fearful teenagers with depression and anxiety. The proposed technology synchronizes electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring with augmented reality (AR) simulations of social fear scenarios, enabling real-time detection of fearful responses and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Program (CFDA 47.070) Project Grant for $497,881 aims to develop a "ubiquitous brain-computer interface (BCI) framework" to enhance both cognitive and motor functions for individuals with neurological disorders. The research project, led by San Diego State University Foundation, seeks to create a versatile BCI system that can analyze neural signals from multiple brain regions to enable...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $899,286 Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program grant to the University of Washington to fund research aimed at expanding the understanding of human-technology interaction through brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). The interdisciplinary project will investigate how the nervous system responds to neural interfaces and develop advanced computational algorithms to optimize the interactions between users and BCI devices. The...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084) provides $295,000 to In Virtualis LLC to develop a brain-computer interface (BCI) solution. The goal is to create a Unity-based extended reality (XR) BCI development platform, a unifying API for real-time digital signal processing, and sophisticated XR environments to simulate activities of daily living (ADLs). The project will also design an inferential AI...
This $729,956 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) supports research at Northeastern University to address the "generalization problem" in neural models of fear. The goal is to reconcile apparently conflicting findings from animal and human neuroimaging studies on the brain regions and neural circuits underlying the subjective experience of fear. The research...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $166,289 Project Grant to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop a novel single-ear biosensing system for continuous facial and eye movement tracking and 3D facial reconstruction. The research aims to enable camera-free facial landmark detection and 3D facial animation through cross-modal transfer learning between visual and biosignal data. Key project objectives include designing low-power...
This $585,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) supports research to redesign brain-computer interfaces using real-life images to improve communication for children with physical disabilities. The key objectives are to study how brain activity differs between grid-based and real-life scene interfaces, examine how highlighted images impact brain signals, and determine interface designs...
This $599,918 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports the development of a non-surgical bioelectronic brain implant system. The goal is to create ultra-small devices that can circulate through the body's vasculature, recognize target brain regions, and self-implant without the need for invasive surgery. Once implanted, these devices will enable high-resolution, targeted brain stimulation, offering unprecedented control over neural...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $550,000 Project Grant to Northeastern University under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships federal grant program (CFDA 47.084) to develop a smart seizure prediction system using AI-enabled implantable sensor networks. The system will use embedded artificial intelligence algorithms to enable in-situ medical inference for patients with neurological disorders not treatable with antiepilepsy medications. Northeastern University will develop the...
This $337,422 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) aims to develop a novel "neuron-to-neuron interface" that can transmit signals between individual neurons in the brains of two zebrafish larvae. The researchers at the University of Illinois seek to create a system that allows synchronized behavioral outputs in both a "sender" and "receiver" fish by transmitting neural signals optically between their...
