Project Grant R01DC023100
- 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 $585,999.00 to the University of South Florida to conduct research on improving speech understanding for individuals with cochlear implants in the presence of background noise. The research aims to examine how spatial cues can support communication by exploring the interactions...
- This federal Project Grant award of $583,125 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 understand the neural mechanisms underlying cochlear implant (CI) outcomes. The long-term goal is to develop CI stimulation strategies that optimize brain function and plasticity to improve speech comprehension for CI users. Key objectives include identifying...
- 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 $662,162 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 award supports research by Oregon Health & Science University to investigate binaural spectral and temporal integration in individuals with hearing loss and hearing devices. The research aims to better understand abnormal binaural fusion and its association with...
- 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 $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...
- 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 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 $131,408 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (CFDA 93.173 - Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders) supports research on the impact of noise-induced hearing loss on neural representations and processing in the auditory cortex and amygdala. The primary awardee, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, will leverage advanced imaging and recording techniques to investigate how hearing loss leads to maladaptive...
- This Project Grant award was made by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the federal Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders grant program (CFDA 93.173). The $147,486 award, made on June 11, 2025, supports research at Carnegie Mellon University to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying the benefit of interaural level difference (ILD) magnification for improving spatial auditory attention in bilateral cochlear implant users....
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 from various etiologies like noise exposure, aging, and neurodegenerative diseases, despite normal audiometric thresholds. The research is being conducted by the University of Colorado-Denver, a public research institution, with the goal of advancing scientific understanding of communication disorders to potentially improve diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life for affected populations. The project is scheduled to run from August 2025 through May 2030.
