- This federal Project Grant award of $238,356 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research to study the role of the amygdala-nucleus reticularis thalami (NRT) pathway in modulating thalamocortical circuits and cortical activity, and its potential impact on seizures and neuropsychiatric comorbidities in people with epilepsy. The research, led by the...
- 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 map the functional organization of the central autonomic network in the human brain. The $238,356 award will allow researchers at the University of California, San Francisco to use stereo-EEG implanted in epilepsy patients to determine which brain...
- This federal Project Grant award of $140,690 was provided 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. The award supports research to investigate the relationship between gamma oscillations in the motor network and dyskinesia (excessive movement) in Parkinson's disease patients. The goals are to use chronically implanted neurostimulators and wearable sensors...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,042,170.00, provided 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, supports research to apply computational modeling to the analysis of intracranial recording and stimulation data from the human brain. The key objectives are to 1) dissect the neural activity patterns underlying electrophysiology recordings, and 2)...
- This federal Project Grant award of $357,047 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research at the University of California, Riverside to investigate how neural dynamics transition across different spatiotemporal scales, internal states, and external contexts. The goal is to develop causal discovery methods that can more accurately and robustly...
- The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a $147,486 Project Grant under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027. The grant funds the development of a novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) method to concurrently measure brain tissue displacement, blood dynamics, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow in humans. This research...
- This federal Project Grant award of $390,000.00 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 investigate the role of dysregulated eIF4E-mediated translational control in the pathogenesis of Focal Cortical Dysplasia Type II (FCDII), a neurodevelopmental disorder that causes focal cortical malformations and drug-resistant epilepsy. The...
This federal Project Grant award of $175,530 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) is focused on developing objective neuroimaging-based outcome measures for functional seizures (FS), a subtype of functional neurological disorder (FND). The project aims to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine neural activity in brain regions associated with emotion processing and control, including the prefrontal cortex, cingulate, insula, hippocampus, and amygdala. This research seeks to establish objective biomarkers for sense of control, catastrophic expectations, and stress reactivity, which have been identified as potential novel treatment targets for reducing FS. The award was made to the University of Alabama at Birmingham and will be conducted over a 4-year period from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2029.
