This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $434,610 to Florida Institute of Technology Inc. (Florida TECH) to develop light-triggered molecular tools critical for understanding the brain's complex network. The principal investigator, Dr. Nasri Nesnas, will collaborate with neuroscientists to design and use these tools to precisely modulate calcium ion concentrations, enabling improved...
The federal Project Grant award R01MH135141, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), supports research on the role of top-down dendritic processing in credit assignment and cortical dynamics. The $3,360,283 award to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) aims to establish the relationship between single-neuron dendritic integration and circuit dynamics, interrogate the link between dendritic activity and...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $254,250 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants) to New York University School of Medicine to conduct in vivo assessment of mitochondrial complex I function in individuals with schizophrenia. The research aims to use [18F]BCPP-EF Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and 31P-Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy to measure mitochondrial complex I distribution and brain energetics in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. The study...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will provide $423,750 to Rockefeller University to investigate the molecular programs in the thalamus that enable working memory. The research aims to delineate the chronic and acute gene regulatory mechanisms downstream of the GPR12 receptor that sustain synchronized thalamo-cortical neural activity underlying working memory. This work will provide new...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $2,503,521.00, was issued by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The grant, awarded to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, will support a research project focused on "Psychobiological Regulation and Molecular Characterization of Cell-Free Mitochondrial DNA in Humans". The key objectives of this multi-year (Aug 2024 to Apr 2029) research...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $470,996 to Vanderbilt University to conduct research on the neural basis of human working memory. The 2-year project, running from April 2025 to April 2027, will involve neurophysiological recordings from human patients with intracranial electrodes prior to epilepsy surgery. The researchers will have the patients perform working memory tasks...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $495,907 to Florida State University to investigate the neurobiological basis of spatial memory and action transformations. The award aims to determine whether the hippocampus-anterior thalamus-parietal cortex network is critical for coordinating allocentric (map-like) spatial memories and appropriate egocentric (body-centered) actions. The...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $182,993 Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) program to the Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene, Inc. (RFMH), operating as the New York Psychiatric Center. The grant supports a 4-year research project from September 2024 to August 2028 that aims to investigate the role of acetylcholine release in the dorsomedial striatum and its relationship to thalamic activity during reversal learning. The project...
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $177,310 Project Grant under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) to the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. The grant is for a project titled "Investigating the Mechanism of Decision-Making in the Mitochondrial Protease YME1" that seeks to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying how the YME1 protease selects and processes protein...
This federal Project Grant award R01MH137669, in the amount of $2,286,510.00, was provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The award supports research to develop a theoretical framework for how canonical neural circuit computations can support a wide variety of cognitive processes and brain functions. The key objectives of the research are to: 1) develop an analytical theory based on Oscillatory Recurrent Gated...
