The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded The Johns Hopkins University a 3-year, $274,297 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to conduct collaborative research on the extreme mechanics of the human brain. The research aims to generate insights into how the living human brain responds to large and rapid loading, which is critical for developing models to predict traumatic brain injury and designing safer protective equipment. The project will combine high-rate mechanical...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $320,000 in funding to Northeastern University to conduct research on the neurocognitive development of adolescent learning. The goal is to understand the cognitive and brain mechanisms related to learning from experience, and how these change from childhood to adolescence and young adulthood. The project will use behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging...
