The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $755,461 Project Grant under the SBE-UKRI Lead Agency Opportunity (CFDA 47.075 Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) to The University of Iowa for the project "Neural Mechanisms for Auditory Memory Sequencing and Prediction." This binational, collaborative research aims to better understand memory and prediction in the human and non-human primate brain. The project will directly compare cross-species data on auditory processing and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $450,028 to The Johns Hopkins University will fund research to understand how the brain processes and infers patterns from complex, dynamic auditory environments. The research seeks to develop a theoretical framework for statistical inference in auditory processing, supported by behavioral experiments and neurophysiological (EEG) studies on structured sound sequences. It will...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant Award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will fund research to study the encoding models and top-down modulation of the human subcortical auditory system. The $422,562 award to the Regents of the University of Michigan will support efforts to understand how lower brain areas in the auditory pathway interact with higher auditory cortical regions when communicating in noisy environments. The researchers...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will provide $225,307 in funding to the University of California, Berkeley from March 2025 to February 2028. The project aims to investigate how the brain extracts meaning from auditory information and integrates it with other sensory inputs, particularly vision, to support cognitive functioning. Key objectives include testing a hypothesis about the neural mechanisms...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $887,831 Project Grant under its STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. The grant, awarded on September 1, 2023, will fund a collaborative research effort to study the neurological factors underlying individual variability in auditory learning and second-language acquisition. The research will integrate attention monitoring via pupil dilation and neuromodulation through vagus nerve stimulation to...
This Project Grant award of $250,000.00 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. The research combines behavioral tasks,...
This $401,918 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research by the University of Rochester to investigate neural mechanisms underlying how the brain processes complex sounds like speech and music across different timescales. The key objectives are to use computational models and neural recordings from auditory cortex to understand the brain's flexible integration of sound information over...
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...
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,...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $15,030 to The University of Iowa to investigate the fundamental nature of speech perception and its link to language and reading abilities. The project, titled "Categorization Consistency: A Fundamental Dimension of Individual Variation in Speech Perception," aims to better understand how individuals' consistency in categorizing speech sounds...
