This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $346,803 to the University of Chicago to test theories on what determines the memorability of stimuli like images, voices, and words. The 5-year project will use behavioral experiments, brain imaging, and artificial intelligence to investigate three main theories: 1) that memory is organized in mental maps where more central, accessible items are more...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $600,000 supports research into the mechanisms underlying long-term memory storage at the University of California, Los Angeles from February 1, 2022 to January 31, 2025. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences. Specifically, the grant funds research investigating whether memories are stored through nuclear modifications in neurons rather than changes in...
This $850,000 Project Grant award, funded jointly by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems and Division of Information and Intelligent Systems under CFDA 47.070 Computer and Information Science and Engineering, supports research to understand how sleep and memory are connected in the brain. The project will use long-duration, high-resolution recordings of neuronal activity to observe changes in synaptic connections during sleep and memory tasks,...
The National Science Foundation awarded $500,000 under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to the University of California, San Francisco for a project grant titled "Understanding Mechanisms of Semantic Memory through Intracranial Recording and Stimulation." The three-year project, running from September 1, 2022 to August 31, 2025, will utilize intracranial electroencephalography recordings from awake epilepsy patients to decipher how neural...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $330,000 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to Yale University. The "NeroFlex" project aims to develop an advanced implantable neural interface platform that integrates optimized resistive RAM memory, programmable analog front-end circuits, and specialized processors for efficient brain data acquisition and computational processing. The research plan encompasses device fabrication, mixed-signal circuit design,...
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 Project Grant award of $199,999 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a collaborative research effort between the University of Chicago and Swiss partners to advance the understanding of the neural and behavioral underpinnings of working memory. The goal is to clarify the cognitive role of neurally active representations in working memory and examine whether there are specific operations that require...
This $325,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research at the University of Chicago to investigate the role of different memory systems in guiding decision-making for novel choices. The research team plans to leverage eye-tracking, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), computational modeling, and patient populations to characterize how "rigid" and "flexible"...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award provides $160,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral fellowship investigation into how sleep facilitates the integration of new and existing memories. The goal is to understand the brain mechanisms that enable this integration process, which is critical for building knowledge from new information encountered in daily life. The study will use electroencephalography (EEG),...
This $120,276 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a collaborative research project to enhance episodic memory through the integration of real-world brain recording, stimulation, and perception data. The key objectives are to: Synchronize human experience data from various IoT sensors with neuronal activity recordings to understand how brain patterns relate to real-world experiences. Leverage...
