Project Grant 2507497
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) awarded Northeastern University $532,152 on May 1, 2025 to conduct research on the neurocognitive development of learning in adolescents. The project aims to investigate the cognitive and brain mechanisms related to learning from experience, and how these change from childhood to adolescence and young adulthood. Using behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Office of Multidisciplinary Activities, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate how humans use detailed memories of past experiences to make adaptive decisions when facing uncertain futures. The $160,000 award, effective September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2027, will fund research conducted by an early career scientist under the sponsorship of...
- This $160,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports a postdoctoral fellowship under the sponsorship of Dr. Franco Pestilli at the University of Texas at Austin. The research aims to investigate the role of white matter microstructure in learning and retention of knowledge, particularly in the domain of math skills, before and after learning interruptions. The project seeks to advance understanding...
- This $160,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports an early career scientist's postdoctoral fellowship to use computational models to understand children's language processing development. The project aims to study how quickly children can put words together as they read, designing a web-based task to measure children's word-by-word reading times and using AI language models to analyze how their...
- This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will support research to investigate how the three-dimensional organization of the human genome controls gene expression and cell identity in the brain. The $300,000 award, spanning August 2025 to July 2027, will fund the development of new AI-powered tools to reconstruct 3D chromosome structure from single-cell experiments and simulate how changes in genome structure affect...
- This $778,024 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) will support a 3-year longitudinal study to examine neurobiological and contextual factors that contribute to successful transition from adolescence to adulthood. The research team at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) will use fMRI, behavioral measures, and questionnaires to test hypotheses that neural reward sensitivity, tolerance...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship award in the amount of $160,000 supports a two-year research project examining how children aged 7-12 understand and trust the capabilities of generative AI chatbots. The research involves a mixed-methods study across two phases - an initial experiment to assess children's trust in AI vs. human-provided information and their ability to identify common AI chatbot errors,...
- This $160,000 Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support a postdoctoral fellowship investigating the neural basis of social influence perception. Under the sponsorship of Drs. Shari Liu, Marina Bedny, and Tianmin Shu at Johns Hopkins University, the fellowship supports an early-career scientist who will use behavioral and neuroimaging methods to examine how the brain processes information about physical...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) provides $304,240 to Haverford College to conduct research on the relationship between early-life stress and emotional regulation. The project aims to examine how adverse childhood experiences impact a neural marker of emotional reactivity, the late positive potential (LPP), in young adults. The research involves three related studies testing the ability...
- This Project Grant award, totaling $134,568.00, was provided by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The award will support an early career educational neuroscientist, Dr. Suzanne Perkins, in her research to understand the cognitive neural signatures of childhood maltreatment in adolescents. The objectives are to delineate the brain-based mechanisms...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Office of Multidisciplinary Activities under CFDA Program 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences, supports an early-career scientist's postdoctoral fellowship to study how childhood experiences shape brain development during adolescence. The $160,000 award, effective from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027, will fund research to characterize the links between childhood environment and cortical neuroplasticity, leveraging advanced machine learning and AI techniques to model individual variability in neurodevelopment. The research aims to provide new insights into how the brain adapts to experiences and grows over time, with the goal of understanding how childhood factors can impact patterns of brain development during adolescence.
