- The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York received a $452,375 Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.865). The award, effective from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027, supports research to investigate the reciprocal interactions between placental neurosteroid allopregnanolone and placental inflammatory...
- This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) provides $156,080 to investigate how maternal sickness impacts caregiving behaviors and the underlying neurobiological mechanisms. The research will be conducted by New York University School of Medicine and focuses on understanding how inflammation and sickness disrupt the activity of...
- This Project Grant award of $157,000.00, provided by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), supports a longitudinal, prospective study investigating the relationship between pregnancy stress, maternal mental health symptoms, sex steroid hormones, and postpartum maternal sensitivity. The study aims to determine the individual and coordinated trajectories...
- This Project Grant award, titled "Maternal and Paternal Behavior Associated with Parent-Child Brain Synchrony," is funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The $119,721 award, effective from September 1, 2025 to May 31, 2027, will support research at Texas A&M University to investigate the biological and behavioral mechanisms...
- This federal Project Grant award of $418,178 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to provide mechanistic insights into the neurobiological mechanisms by which maternal sensitivity is compromised by postpartum depression. Specifically, the University of Massachusetts (UMass), through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration, will use intersectional viral...
- This $2,233,478 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) will support research at the University of Iowa aimed at understanding the brain-wide electrical network adaptations that occur during pregnancy, postpartum, and parental care behaviors in mice. The research objectives are to: 1) identify brain-wide network adaptations aligned with specific parental behaviors, 2) characterize maternal brain adaptations at the...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under CFDA Program 93.310 - Trans-NIH Research Support provides funding of $1,340,637 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying the development of social behaviors in mammalian infants. The project aims to genetically identify sensory neurons that attach positive valence to maternal olfactory cues, and use spatial transcriptomics to map...
- This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), aims to characterize the structural and functional brain development trajectories of offspring with and without prenatal exposure to maternal psychological distress (MPD). The $768,372 award, made on September 4, 2025, will support a longitudinal study to assess the neurodevelopmental...
- The federal Project Grant titled "NEUROENDOCRINE COMPUTATIONS UNDERLYING AN ENDURING BEHAVIORAL STATE" was awarded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865). The $571,485 award, with a performance period from August 2025 to June 2030, will support research by The Children's Hospital Corporation (doing business as Boston Children's Hospital) to investigate the...
This Project Grant award from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), under CFDA 93.865 Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research, provides $627,301 to support research on the neurosteroid allopregnanediol and its effects on promoting parental behavior. The award will fund a study to characterize the mechanisms of action of this neurosteroid, which has been shown to promote parental care in mice, in order to gain a better understanding of the hormonal modulation of parental behavior. This research aims to expand the investigation of parental care beyond the typical murid rodent models, utilizing the Peromyscus genus of mice which exhibit distinct parental care behaviors across closely related species. The award has an initial funding period from August 15, 2025 to May 31, 2030 and is being conducted by the Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York.
