This $225,307 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program aims to investigate how the brain extracts meaning from sounds and integrates auditory information with other senses, primarily vision. The project will test the "Auditory Semantic Alignment Hypothesis" using fMRI to understand how cortical areas process different categories of sounds and pass that information to broader semantic networks....
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 $250,000 Project Grant award 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. Using a combination of behavioral tasks,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $422,562 to the Regents of the University of Michigan to study attentional and multisensory modulation of the human subcortical auditory system. The 3-year project aims to understand how the lower brain areas in the auditory pathway interact with higher auditory cortical regions when communicating in noisy environments. The research will employ...
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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Integrative Activities (IA) program (CFDA 47.083), provides $216,154 to Kansas State University to study the impacts of auditory perceptual learning on working memory skills and cortical dynamics. The grant aims to examine how changes in the brain from auditory training influence memory performance, with plans to measure the effects of trained vs. untrained sounds on working memory fidelity, inhibition, and mental effort....
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075), provides $533,853 to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for research on the perception and cognition of sound texture. The investigators will develop a computational framework to understand the properties of environmental noises that underlie human perception. This involves assembling a large dataset...
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 University of Iowa was awarded a $750,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to conduct research measuring and mathematically modeling ionic transport in auditory systems from April 1, 2021 to March 31, 2024. The grant was awarded under the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increasing scientific knowledge and enhancing...
The National Science Foundation awarded New York University a $495,472 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) for work on "Audiomotor Speech Rhythms and Their Perceptual Consequences" from March 1, 2021 to February 29, 2024. The grant will fund research into how rhythmic patterns in speech production relate to speech perception. As the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program aims to support basic research that contributes to...
