The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $299,999 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to Mississippi State University (MSU). This 5-year "CAREER" grant, effective July 1, 2024, will fund research to develop a new method for detecting critical congenital heart defects (CCHDs) in newborns.

The project aims to characterize and understand how chest vibrations measured by seismocardiography and gyrocardiography can serve as markers for detecting CCHDs, which can be life-threatening if not identified soon after birth. The research will involve using machine learning to identify CCHD indicators in these signals, visualizing the spatiotemporal patterns of chest vibrations, and developing computational models to understand the genesis of the CCHD markers. The project will also include educational and outreach activities to raise awareness about CCHDs and related diagnostic methods, targeting K-12 students, undergraduates, and the general public.
