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...
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 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 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 $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...
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 of $517,600 from the National Eye Institute (NEI) under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867) supports research to investigate the interaction between visual signals that evoke eye fixation and optokinetic reflex in the retina. The research, to be conducted at Washington University, aims to gain new fundamental knowledge about the neural circuits and computational logic underlying the competition between central and peripheral vision. Using larval...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI) Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) will support research to investigate how humans form allocentric (world-centered) spatial maps of 3D environments using visual information, without physical exploration. The $218,068 award to the University of Pennsylvania will fund two aims: 1) Identifying brain regions that support viewpoint-independent, allocentric representations of both viewed ("scene space") and...
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...
The National Eye Institute (NEI) awarded a $124,205 Project Grant under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) effective March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2027. The grant supports research to investigate how the hippocampus and primary visual cortex interact to generate coordinated mental simulations during active behavior. The project aims to test the generality of this coordination by changing external factors, study...
