- The National Eye Institute awarded the University of Texas at Austin $696,503 on April 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to investigate circuit mechanisms underlying invariant representations in visual processing. The award, designated R01EY037544, supports a five-year project through March 31, 2031, with work performed in Austin, Texas. The research dissects how the visual system transforms sensory inputs into increasingly invariant representations that remain stable...
- The National Eye Institute, part of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, awarded The Methodist Hospital Research Institute $224,100 on June 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to investigate how direct connections between primary visual cortex and prefrontal cortex interact with the pulvinar nucleus of the thalamus to shape visual perception and visually-guided decision-making in nonhuman primates. The recipient will employ focused...
- The National Eye Institute, a component of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, awarded $513,299 to the University of Texas at Arlington on September 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) for a Project Grant supporting fundamental research in transcriptional regulation underlying ocular health and disease. The award funds development of TREX, a variational Bayesian framework designed to identify tissue-specific transcriptional regulators...
- The National Eye Institute, part of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, awarded $2,271,828 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center on September 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867). The recipient will conduct research into the cellular and molecular mechanisms governing optic nerve myelin integrity, with emphasis on understanding how myelin whorls—multilayered degenerative myelin structures that appear in demyelinating...
- The National Eye Institute awarded the University of California, Berkeley $143,031 on December 4, 2025, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to computationally model the role of spatial phase in the selectivity and invariance of responses in primary visual cortex (V1) and secondary visual cortex (V2) to intermediate-level features in natural images. The modeling-driven research will investigate how phase-related computations operate across V1 and V2 and generate testable predictions...
- The National Eye Institute, part of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, awarded The University of Chicago $929,806 on September 30, 2025, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867). The award funds research into synaptic development of the retinogeniculate pathway—the neural circuit connecting the eyes to the brain—with investigation focused on how neurons form correct connections during childhood development and how visual experience shapes that...
- The National Eye Institute, part of the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, awarded The Medical College of Wisconsin, Inc. $564,849 on August 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to investigate how prior experience shapes visual selectivity within the human ventral temporal cortex. The project integrates single-unit neural recordings, local field potential, and functional magnetic resonance imaging to identify factors determining visual...
- The National Eye Institute, an office of the National Institutes of Health under the Department of Health and Human Services, awarded New York University $140,184 under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) on July 1, 2026, to support research decoding the molecular logic of visual map formation in Drosophila.

- The National Eye Institute awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $225,564 on May 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to support analysis and modeling of neurophysiology data from the dorsal visual stream in macaque monkeys trained to categorize visual motion by direction. The project applies representational geometry analysis and artificial neural network modeling to investigate how the primate brain generates neural representations that reflect...
- The National Eye Institute awarded The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York $235,650 on March 1, 2026, under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to characterize representational geometry and learning across primate visual streams. The research examines how the primate visual system balances competing demands—representing objects and places in formats abstract enough for recognition under novel conditions while maintaining specific contextual associations. The work...
