The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a Project Grant of $438,836 to The Trustees of the Stevens Institute of Technology under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program. The award supports research to develop a unified paradigm using simultaneous multimodal measurement of scalp EEG and intracranial EEG (iEEG) signals to estimate the electrophysiological networks of the whole brain....
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders federal grant program (CFDA 93.853), provides $1,204,564.00 to Neurologic Solutions Inc. to further develop and validate the EPISCALP EEG analytics algorithm. The goal is to enhance the accuracy of epilepsy diagnosis by leveraging EPISCALP's predictive capabilities to reduce misdiagnosis rates, which currently...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program, will support research to understand the role of dysregulated eIF4E-mediated translational control in the pathogenesis of Focal Cortical Dysplasia Type II (FCDII). The $390,000 award will fund a 5-year project to investigate specific mRNA subsets affected by MNK-eIF4E signaling...
This $427,625 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program supports research to evaluate the use of hyperpolarized 13C magnetic resonance imaging (HPMRI) as a novel diagnostic tool for identifying epileptic tissue. The research aims to: 1) Use a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy to explore the ability of [1-13C]pyruvate HPMRI to...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $550,000 Project Grant to Northeastern University under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships federal grant program (CFDA 47.084) to develop a smart seizure prediction system using AI-enabled implantable sensor networks. The system will use embedded artificial intelligence algorithms to enable in-situ medical inference for patients with neurological disorders not treatable with antiepilepsy medications. Northeastern University will develop the...
This $199,005 National Science Foundation project grant funds research at the University of North Florida to develop machine learning algorithms using noninvasive wearable sensors to forecast seizures and optimize antiseizure medication dosing for women with epilepsy. Funded under the NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), which supports innovation and excellence in engineering research and education, the two-year award will investigate hormonal changes associated with the menstrual cycle...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, provides $224,258 to the University of Pittsburgh from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2029. The goal of this project is to develop and validate a computer-aided diagnostic tool, the Functional Seizures Likelihood Score (FSLS), to enhance the ability of non-expert providers to...
This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program, will support research to investigate the role of microglial insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) in epileptogenesis. The $376,355 award to Albany Medical College, with a project period from May 15, 2025 to April 30, 2030, will focus on characterizing how elevated mTOR...
