- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The Trustees of Princeton University $777,124 on June 15, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to investigate the computational and neural mechanisms underlying context inference and prediction. The recipient will combine computational models and electrophysiology in non-human primates to examine how context is represented and learned in the brain. Research will focus on three theoretical mechanisms for learning...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The Trustees of The University of Pennsylvania $762,440 on April 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop and validate a concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation and functional MRI protocol for measuring the effects of continuous theta burst stimulation to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on anxiety-related neural and behavioral responses. The protocol will assess TMS-evoked BOLD responses and...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The Leland Stanford Junior University $426,991 under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) on August 3, 2026, to support research decoding medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) plasticity across developmental life stages. The recipient is investigating critical periods of synaptic plasticity in the MPFC using high-throughput assays measuring long-term potentiation in mouse brain slices via multielectrode recording arrays. Aim 1 maps...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded New York University $435,974 on May 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop computational models that quantify individual differences in learning and decision-making and predict psychiatric symptoms. The award funds development of a novel computational framework combining recurrent neural networks and dynamical systems theory to model reward learning processes at the individual level rather than group...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Miami $731,258 on March 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to map neural dynamics linked to major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder using high-stakes real-world events. The recipient will conduct fMRI neuroimaging across five sessions with 144 undergraduate participants—72 diagnosed with GAD or MDD and 72 controls—leveraging naturally occurring emotional events during...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The Washington University $103,310 on August 3, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242, K99MH144521) to investigate the causal dynamics of human amygdala-prefrontal circuits during fear extinction learning.
