This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), supports a research project titled "Development of Human Dorsal Visual Cortex." The $476,451 award, which runs from March 1, 2025 to February 28, 2030, aims to map the structural and functional development of the dorsal visual stream in the human brain across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. The research team at Princeton University will leverage...
This federal Project Grant award of $371,378.00, provided by the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 Vision Research), supports research to investigate the mechanisms of vision processing at the center-of-gaze (or fovea) in the primary visual cortex (V1) of the macaque monkey. The research aims to provide the first detailed understanding of how the foveal V1 processes high-acuity color vision, which is fundamental to understanding human vision but remains largely unknown. The award was granted...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Eye Institute (NEI) under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), supports research to understand the representation of cone photoreceptors in the primary visual cortex (V1) of the non-human primate brain. The $562,215 award to the University of Alabama at Birmingham, with a project period from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2029, will use adaptive optics technology to measure V1 neural responses at a cone-resolved level. The research...
This Project Grant award of $482,312.00 was provided by the National Eye Institute, under the federal Vision Research grant program (CFDA 93.867), to Trustees of Boston University. The project, titled "Testing a Dynamic Spatiotemporal Normalization Framework for Human Vision", will investigate how visual perception depends on both instantaneous input and temporal context, with a focus on understanding the role of normalization and temporal attention. The research will involve...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) supports research to understand the neural mechanisms that underlie flexible visual-oculomotor decision-making in the brain. The $1,969,806 award, spanning September 2024 to March 2029, will fund the investigation of where and how visual decision rules are implemented in the brain. The research aims to characterize flexible decision rule use, identify correlative relationships between neural activity and...
This $192,900 Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), aims to understand how locomotion affects the flow of visual information between brain areas. The researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine will utilize high-density laminar probes to record population activity from multiple brain areas during different locomotive contexts. They will evaluate communication between areas using multivariate analytic...
The National Eye Institute (NEI) awarded a $510,689 Project Grant under CFDA 93.867 (Vision Research) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation. The grant, effective March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2030, will fund research to define the functional organization and retinotopic precision of top-down feedback circuitry from the anterior cingulate cortex to primary and higher visual cortical areas, as well as the functional organization and efficacy of these top-down feedback projections during...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) aims to develop an "Attentive Knowledge Device for Visual Assistance" that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision technologies to better assist persons with visual impairment. The $602,198 award, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027, will fund the University of Southern California to: 1) engage partners to select optimal machine vision algorithms for real-time...
This $121,665 Project Grant, awarded by the National Eye Institute under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), supports research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to investigate signal processing mechanisms in the macaque retina. The project examines how regional variations in neural architecture, specifically differences in cell density and connectivity, impact the sensitivity and spatial encoding capabilities of two key retinal pathways - the rod pathway for dim light vision and...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), provides $688,882 in funding to the University of Chicago to conduct research on the neuronal computations that underlie rapid and flexible visual categorical decisions. The research aims to understand how coordinated neuronal activity across brain regions supports decision-making related to visual stimuli, which is critical for addressing conditions like Alzheimer's...
