This federal Project Grant award of $150,938, provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under CFDA Program 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders," supports research to investigate the computational mechanisms underlying speech sensorimotor adaptation. The project aims to translate a behavioral paradigm from the motor domain to speech, in order to assess whether speech adaptation involves separable fast and slow...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Federal Grant Program titled "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173), is for the development and testing of a neurocomputational model to quantitatively characterize the speech motor skillsets of individual speakers. The $681,385 award to Trustees of Boston University will be used to assess the specificity and reliability of model...
This $440,610 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 fund a study investigating the neural signals required for error-based motor learning. The study, led by Yale University, will examine whether predictive processing is a fundamental and universal computation of the motor system, testing this hypothesis in both...
This federal Project Grant award of $224,094.00 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under CFDA program 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders", supports research into the cortical role for skilled, sound-guided behavior in mice. The project will be conducted by the prime awardee, New York University School of Medicine, from Sep 1, 2024 to Mar 31, 2027. As a leading academic medical center and research institution,...
This federal Project Grant award, titled "LEVERAGING HUMAN INTRACRANIAL RECORDINGS TO QUANTITATIVELY CHARACTERIZE BASAL GANGLIA OUTPUT DURING SPEECH," was provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The award of $171,532 was granted to Harvard Medical School, a sub-recipient of Harvard College President & Fellows Of, to conduct research...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a federal Project Grant under CFDA 93.173 "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" to The Medical University of South Carolina. The $477,660 grant, with a project period from September 1, 2024 to July 31, 2029, will investigate age-related differences in the brain processes underlying speech recognition, with the goal of improving listening difficulties experienced by older adults....
This federal Project Grant award of $693,856 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 support research on the structure and function of coordinated neural activity in the auditory system of awake mice. The research, conducted by the Regents of the University of California, San Francisco, aims to identify and characterize coordinated neural ensembles in the...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173 - Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders) is funding research to develop a bilingual speech neuroprosthesis for individuals with anarthria, a loss of speech ability due to neurological conditions. The $204,592 award will be used by the University of California, San Francisco to study cortical activity patterns underlying bilingual speech production and to develop...
This Project Grant award, titled "The Impact of Noise on Temporal Integration of Speech in the Human Brain", is funded by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173). The $303,136 award supports research to examine how the auditory cortex processes speech in the presence of background noise, with a focus on understanding how cortical integration windows may vary...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a Project Grant of $228,852 under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173) to The Research Foundation for the State University of New York (RF SUNY). The grant supports research to determine the neural mechanisms in the primate superior colliculus that support decision criteria for auditory perception, including spatial and non-spatial auditory processing. The work...
