The University of Pittsburgh was awarded a $673,803 Project Grant from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The purpose of this 5-year study is to examine the relationship between parent-child neural synchrony, focused attention, and the development of ADHD symptom trajectories in preschool-aged children at risk for ADHD. Using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), the researchers will assess neural connectivity in...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $826,902 to the Hugo W. Moser Research Institute at Kennedy Krieger, Inc. to examine the dynamic relationships between physical activity, sleep, and circadian rhythms with neurobehavioral heterogeneity in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The 5-year project aims to leverage wearable technology to objectively track daily...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) has awarded a 5-year, $857,216 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to The Children's Hospital Corporation, doing business as Boston Children's Hospital, to conduct research on the longitudinal trajectories of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and disruptive behaviors in young children. The study will leverage an existing cohort of low-resourced, racially and ethnically diverse infants in an urban pediatric...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $449,729 to Openmindxr LLC to develop a suite of virtual reality (VR) programs that aim to improve social skills in children with ADHD. The key products being delivered are three distinct VR modules: 1) the PerspectiveR module, which allows users to experience interactions from multiple viewpoints; 2) the Social Skills Challenge module,...
This Project Grant award for $2,535,618 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) aims to advance the understanding of the genomic mechanisms underlying primary attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in families. The key products and services to be delivered through this 5-year grant include: 1) Developing the largest family-based repository of children with primary ADHD and their family members using consistent...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $978,628 to Neurotrainer, Inc. to conduct a feasibility and efficacy study of their "NeuroTrainer" virtual reality (VR) cognitive training intervention for students with and without attention-related difficulties. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the NeuroTrainer approach, which integrates physical activity, prolonged...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $764,476 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to develop an integrated, portable sensor suite for tracking neural activity, physiological arousal, motor signals, and physical interactions in social environments. The goal is to improve the accuracy of determining the sources of inattention on an individual basis, enabling more...
This $809,312 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) supports research to characterize circadian function and sleep disturbances among children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The primary objectives are to: 1) assess circadian function and sleep profiles in 250 ADHD children using gold-standard dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) measurement and wearable sensors; 2) examine...

This $172,584 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will fund a four-year research career development program. The program focuses on evaluating the RELAX (Regulating Emotions Like an Expert) intervention for families of adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It will also develop ecological momentary intervention (EMI) procedures to support skill rehearsal in real life via smartphone apps. The grant recipient, an assistant professor at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, will gain expertise in managing clinical trials, developing EMI, conducting longitudinal analyses, and building community partnerships to disseminate evidence-based interventions. The project aims to quantify the acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of the RELAX intervention, identify associations between RELAX outcomes and improvements in social-emotional/behavioral functioning, and gather stakeholder feedback on the EMI procedures.
