This $420,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will support research at the University of Tennessee to investigate the cortical perineuronal net regulation of maternal caregiving behaviors. The key objectives are to: 1) use histochemistry and RT-qPCR to determine changes in perineuronal nets and associated mRNAs in the somatosensory cortex and insular cortex across female reproduction, hormone exposure, and pup interactions;...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $1,444,730 provides funding from June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2026 to The Ohio State University Office of Sponsored Programs under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The award will support research investigating neuroimmune contributions to maternal care during pregnancy. The grantee aims to further understanding of how pregnancy hormones impact the expectant mother's immune system and brain function to foster...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under CFDA Program 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research, aims to investigate the role of corticolimbic brain circuits in regulating maternal behavior and threat/stress responses during the postpartum period. With total funding of $534,004 over the project period from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2029, the research will utilize genetic technologies, neural circuit...
This federal Project Grant award of $418,178 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to provide mechanistic insights into the neurobiological mechanisms by which maternal sensitivity is compromised by postpartum depression. Specifically, the University of Massachusetts (UMass), through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration, will use intersectional viral...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (SPRF) Program award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral research project investigating how mothers facilitate their infants' access to the environment as their motor skills develop. The research will assess mothers' beliefs about their infants' abilities, characterize mothers' support behaviors, and identify profiles of maternal support that enable infant exploration. The...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $588,063 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). This 3-year grant, effective August 1, 2023, supports a collaborative research project to examine disparities in emotional resilience and mental health among mothers and their children facing high psychosocial stress. The research employs biocultural and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), will support research to investigate the neural circuits underlying infant-directed behaviors in mice. The $709,362 award to New York University School of Medicine aims to elucidate the role of specific cell populations in the brain that drive both parental care and infanticidal behaviors. The project will...
The National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems awarded a $1,186,340 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to support research titled "Sensory Plasticity in Fathers" from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2025. The grant is part of the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award to Scripps College, with a CFDA program title of "Biological Sciences", provides $340,093 to support a 5-year research project investigating the behavioral and neural mechanisms through which early-life social environments shape individual development across species. The project will use the African cichlid fish model to uncover the causal attributes of social experience that influence behavioral phenotypes via plasticity in...
