- This $171,308 federal 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), supports research to identify molecular markers and map local axonal projections of previously unidentified neuron types in the auditory midbrain. The research team at the University of Michigan aims to leverage recent advances in sequencing and molecular biology to characterize two...
- This $647,518 Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program, supports research investigating the impact of cochlear synaptopathy on brainstem mechanisms of monaural temporal processing and binaural hearing. The study aims to understand the neural mechanisms and loci in the auditory system that produce listening difficulties, which can emerge...
- This $115,158 Project Grant, awarded on February 1, 2025 by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), supports research into the neurological mechanisms underlying hearing loss. The central hypothesis is that the presentation of phosphatidylserine acts as a signal to mark inactive spiral ganglion neuron connections with outer hair cells for removal, facilitating...
- This $146,206 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), part of the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), will support research to understand the role of auditory cortex and subcortical regions in learning and retaining associations between sounds and behavioral outcomes in mice. The research aims to investigate how the auditory cortex may train subcortical regions like the medial...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders", awarded a $193,750.00 Project Grant to The Johns Hopkins University. The grant, effective April 1, 2025 through March 31, 2028, will fund research to investigate the neural dynamics and underlying mechanisms in the auditory cortex during implicit learning of complex sounds. The research aims to map the neural circuits...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (93.173), provides $693,856 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct research on the structure and function of coordinated neural activity in the auditory system. The key objectives of this 5-year research project are to: 1) Identify coordinated neural...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), awarded a $589,393 Project Grant to Northwestern University to support research on the development of cochlear innervation. The goal is to elucidate how the neural circuit in the mammalian cochlea assembles during development, by altering the identity of certain cell types involved. Through this project, the researchers will...
- This federal Project Grant award for $486,750.00 was provided by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program. The grant supports research to explore the morphological changes and cell polarity mechanisms in supporting cells of the inner ear, which play a critical role in auditory function. The primary awardee, the Jackson Laboratory, a nonprofit biomedical research...
- This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173) program, is supporting research to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying recovery of spatial hearing after unilateral hearing loss in mice. The $147,486 award, effective June 15, 2025 through December 15, 2027, will enable the principal investigator to conduct chronic...
- This federal Project Grant award of $147,486 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 to identify the circuit mechanisms responsible for contrast-dependent perceptual changes and neuronal gain adaptation in the primary auditory cortex. The research aims to understand how different types of inhibitory interneurons, specifically parvalbumin-positive...
This Project Grant award of $659,102 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (CFDA 93.173) program, supports research on the functions and diseases of cochlear neurons. The research aims to: The research will utilize innovative molecular biology, biochemical, electrophysiology, and imaging techniques in gene-targeted and optogenetic mouse models to provide a comprehensive understanding of Type II auditory afferent neurons and their role in auditory perception. The project is being conducted by the University of Arizona and is expected to run from Sep 1, 2025 to Aug 31, 2030.
