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, aims to support research on the neural mechanisms underlying multi-step cognitive-motor sequencing. The $126,333 award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York will fund the development of a behavioral paradigm for studying sequence generation in rhesus macaques, along with large-scale electrophysiology measurements and neural network modeling analyses. The research seeks to elucidate how the brain determines and flexibly modifies multi-step movement sequences by leveraging prior knowledge. Findings from this project are expected to advance fundamental knowledge about movement control and shed light on the mechanisms of action for prescription drugs used to treat cognitive-motor disorders.
