Project Grant R01DC022867
- The University of Pittsburgh received a $610,725 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) effective May 2, 2025 with a completion date of April 30, 2030. The project will characterize the physiological mechanisms contributing to "suprathreshold deficits" in sensorineural hearing loss, where individuals struggle to understand...
- This federal Project Grant award of $469,036, 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), aims to characterize accuracy and variability in speech sound productions across bidialectal and bilingual preschoolers. The study will examine two groups of children - those acquiring African American English and Standardized American English, as well as those acquiring...
- This $159,116 Project Grant was awarded on September 30, 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). The grant supports research by Purdue University to explore patterns in speech perception and production abilities among children with a history of late language development, and whether these skills predict later phonological development and the presence of...
- This $778,740 Project Grant, awarded by 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 establish normative data on auditory-perceptual features of motor speech development in preschool-aged children. The goal is to create a clinically feasible assessment protocol to facilitate early and accurate differential diagnosis of childhood apraxia of speech and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $249,000.00 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 objective is to understand the neural mechanisms that enable the precise timing and control of speech production, with a focus on the neural circuits involved in quickly stopping ongoing speech. The award will support research at the University of Pittsburgh to...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $147,486 Project Grant under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) program to the University of Pittsburgh. The project aims to apply principles of the Complementary Learning Systems (CLS) neurobiological framework to evaluate how sleep-related consolidation influences neural and behavioral response to aphasia treatment. Specific research objectives include exploring the...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $402,500 Project Grant under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173) federal grant program to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York. This 3-year project, with a start date of January 6, 2025, aims to systematically investigate the relationship between speech perception/learning and speech production in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The...
- This 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), provides $726,359.00 in funding over a 5-year period from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2030. The project aims to evaluate the influence of speech produced under more natural conditions, such as by talkers with unfamiliar accents, conversational styles, and young children, on children's speech...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $696,836, was provided 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). The purpose of the award is to investigate the neural basis of sensorimotor control of speech in individuals with 16p11.2 deletion syndrome, a common genetic cause of autism. The research will examine speech abilities, sensorimotor control of speech, and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $117,912 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 effects of code-switching on novel word learning in bilingual children with and without developmental language disorder (DLD). The research aims to examine how code-switching, or the use of multiple languages in discourse, impacts implicit...
The University of Pittsburgh was awarded a $3,116,157 Project Grant from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" CFDA program. The grant, awarded on August 7, 2025, supports a research project titled "Assessment of Speech Sound Disorders in Bilingual Latino Children: An Evidence-Based Procedure". The project aims to (1) validate a theoretical framework for bilingual speech production, (2) revise English and Spanish word lists using modern test theory methods, and (3) establish the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of an assessment procedure to accurately identify speech sound disorders in bilingual Latino preschoolers. The research will involve phonetic analysis of speech samples collected from bilingual children to better understand typical and impaired speech development in this population and prevent misdiagnosis of speech disorders.
