This federal Project Grant award of $1,198,422.00 from the National Eye Institute (NEI) under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) supports research to examine the role of oculomotor proprioception in establishing long-term visuospatial memory. The award to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York will fund a 5-year research project that aims to:
Use inactivation of area 3A to study its role in establishing gain fields, long-term spatial memory, and environmental...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), provides $124,205 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to investigate the neural basis of mental simulations and how the brain forms an internal model of the world from sensory information.
The key objectives of this 2-year award, which runs from March 1, 2025 to February 28, 2027, are to study the coordinated neural activity between...
The National Eye Institute (NEI) awarded a $251,573 Project Grant under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to Northwestern University to develop a new technology for re-engineering connectivity in the living brain. The project aims to use rational molecular design, in vitro screening, cell culture approaches, and functional studies in the Drosophila brain to allow scientists to prevent the formation of specific synaptic contacts between neurons. This work is expected to expand the...
This National Eye Institute (NEI) Project Grant award under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) will support research at the University of Chicago to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying visual categorization and feature integration. The $242,310 award, which runs from September 1, 2024 to March 31, 2027, will involve conducting large-scale electrophysiological recordings in the lateral intraparietal region (LIP) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of non-human primates as they perform...
The National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research grant program (CFDA 93.867), has awarded a $159,362 project grant to Albert Einstein College of Medicine to study how locomotion affects visual information processing between brain areas. The 4-year project aims to elucidate the interactions between brain states and sensory communication, with a focus on understanding how locomotion modulates the flow of visual signals between distributed regions of the visual system. The...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), provides $211,988 to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to conduct research on the effects of sleep and intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) on computations in the early visual system.
The key objectives of this project are to: 1) measure melanopsin-specific retinal and cortical responses under natural scenes, 2) record...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI) under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) provides $688,882 to the University of Chicago to conduct research on the neuronal computations underlying rapid and flexible visual categorical decisions. The research aims to advance the understanding of how the brain processes visual information and makes decisions, which is critical for addressing brain-based diseases and conditions that impair visual learning,...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), will support research to investigate how the hippocampus, a brain region typically associated with memory, contributes to visual perception and attention. The $146,816 award, covering the period from February 2025 to July 2027, will fund behavioral and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies to test the hypothesis that hippocampal differentiation, or the...
The National Institutes of Health's National Eye Institute awarded a Project Grant (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) totaling $363,443 to Trustees of Boston University. The grant, awarded on September 30, 2024, will fund a research project titled "Investigating the Effect of Arousal on Visual Processing" that aims to elucidate how states of arousal modulate neural representations in the human visual system. The project will leverage functional neuroimaging and psychophysical methods...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), is supporting the development of a new mouse eye preparation and high-density electrode recording system to study the early functional changes in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) following optic nerve injury. The $224,300 award, with a performance period from May 1, 2024 to April 30, 2026, will enable researchers at Northwestern University to (1) validate the functional...
