This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA Program 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders", provides $145,642 to The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) to investigate the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in contributing to age-related hearing loss, known as metabolic presbyacusis. The key goals of this 22-month project are to: 1) Assess age-related changes in...
This Project Grant award of $149,804 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), supports research on the role of the ACO2 gene in progressive hearing loss. The primary focus of the research is to investigate how a specific R56L mutation in the ACO2 gene, which has been associated with hearing loss, optic nerve atrophy, and seizures in young children, leads to...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), will provide $131,408.00 in funding to the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary to conduct research on the effects of noise-induced hearing loss on auditory cortex and amygdalar neural activity. The research aims to investigate how hearing loss can lead to maladaptive plasticity in the auditory...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), provides $147,486 to Emory University to conduct research on the neural mechanisms enabling recovery of sound localization abilities after unilateral hearing loss in mice. The key objectives are to: 1) Determine how auditory cortex and inferior colliculus regions recover spatial tuning after...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $102,324 Project Grant under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program to The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). The funding supports a research project investigating the role of Dectin-1 expressing macrophages/microglia in age-related auditory nerve degeneration and demyelination. The project aims to define age-dependent changes in Dectin-1 expressing...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), will support research to investigate the mechanisms underlying the olivocochlear system's ability to enhance cochlear function in mice. The $416,642 award, valid from July 2024 to June 2026, will enable researchers at the University of Rochester to: 1) isolate and systematically evaluate the...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $1,804,160 Project Grant under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program to the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, a non-profit hospital and research center affiliated with Harvard Medical School. The grant will fund research to further characterize the regulatory mechanisms underlying the development and plasticity of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs), which play a...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Federal Grant Program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173), provides $521,432 to the University of Rochester to develop a new computational model of the human auditory subcortex. The model will integrate aspects of binaural processing and efferent gain control to investigate and predict perceptual responses to complex sounds in both...
This federal Project Grant award of $448,687 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" program, supports research at Baylor University to investigate the role of calcium regulation in outer hair cells and their sensitivity to cochlear injury. The key objectives of the research are to: 1) Assess how deletion of the calcium-binding protein oncomodulin affects outer...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), awarded a $131,555 Project Grant under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program to Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU). The project aims to characterize how noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) affects the cortical representation and perception of complex natural sounds. Key objectives include: 1) Identifying the...
