The project aims to...
- This federal Project Grant award of $164,516 was provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The funding supports a research project at New York University School of Medicine to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying speech planning and its relationship to speech disorders in Parkinson's disease patients. Specifically, the project aims to study...
- 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...
- The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), through the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders federal grant program (CFDA 93.173), awarded a $650,820 Project Grant to the Regents of the University of Michigan to study the organization and development of motor cortical circuits for speech production in individuals with stuttering. The 5-year research project, commencing on April 1, 2025, aims to provide a mechanistic, functional neuroanatomical...
- 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 $127,512 to support research at Trustees of Boston University (UEI: THL6A6JLE1S7) to investigate neural mechanisms underlying stuttering. The research aims to: 1) Identify neural correlates of distinct disfluency types (repetitions, blocks, prolongations) using...
- This $590,026 Project Grant award 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 to investigate speech timing perception and production in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). The project aims to comprehensively test speech timing acuity in people with PD, examining their abilities to detect differences in speech rate, rhythm, and segment duration...
- This $227,211 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 aimed at understanding the neurocomputational mechanisms underlying speech sensorimotor adaptation. The research project, conducted by the University of Wisconsin System (UEI: LCLSJAGTNZQ7), will employ a novel behavioral paradigm to investigate the separable fast...
The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) awarded a $715,574 Project Grant on September 1, 2025 to Trustees of Boston University to investigate the roles of the basal ganglia and cerebellar circuits in speech motor sequence learning and execution. The 5-year project aims to leverage deep brain stimulation (DBS) technology in DBS implant recipients to better understand how these subcortical circuits contribute to speech production. The research will focus on two types of speech sequences: phoneme sequences within a syllable and syllable sequences in multisyllabic pseudowords. The study will involve 40 participants, with 20 having DBS in the subthalamic nucleus and 20 having DBS in the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus. Local field potentials will be measured from the DBS electrodes to test hypotheses about neural activity changes during speech sequence learning. This project is funded under the NIDCD's Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173).
