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 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 federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 Vision Research) provides $611,546.00 to The Regents of the University of California, Berkeley to conduct research on the computational and neural mechanisms underlying sustained human perception. The project aims to investigate how attention and awareness affect persistent representations of visual stimuli, the structure and information content of field potentials and single neuron spikes in brain regions during...
This Project Grant award of $232,500 from the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) supports research at The Johns Hopkins University to investigate the use of micro-stimulation of mid-level and higher-level visual cortex as a prosthetic strategy for restoring 3D object vision. The research aims to demonstrate that micro-stimulation of specific V4 neuron clusters that encode 3D geometric shape fragments can causally influence 3D shape perception in macaque monkeys. If...
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 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...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 Vision Research) provides $162,486 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to study stimulation of long-range cortical projections involved in visual-spatial behavior in non-human primates using a novel multimodal optoelectronic device. The key products and services to be delivered include: Development of a multimodal optoelectronic device with microLEDs and transparent microelectrodes to enable colocalized...
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 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 (NEI), under the federal Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), supports research at Harvard Medical School to better understand the relationship between visual feature processing in the inferior temporal cortex and spatial representations in the medial temporal lobe of the primate brain. The $576,474 award, spanning May 2025 to April 2029, will utilize innovative recording techniques and analysis methods to compare visual feature...
