Project Grant R01HD116841
- This National Science Foundation project grant of $752,048 supports research into early bilingual language development from 2023 to 2027. The award is made under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program to further understanding of how young children learn two languages simultaneously. Specifically, the University of California, Davis will examine parent-child interactions in monolingual English and bilingual Spanish-English families of Mexican heritage. Researchers will observe...
- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865), will support a longitudinal investigation of the relationship between bilingualism, executive function, and brain organization in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The $691,353 award, beginning April 1, 2025 and running through December 31, 2029, will enable researchers at the University...
- This federal Project Grant award of $117,912 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" program (CFDA 93.173), supports research on the effects of code-switching on novel word learning in bilingual children with and without developmental language disorder (DLD). The research aims to examine how code-switching, or the use of multiple languages in discourse, impacts implicit...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $663,423 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). This three-year grant supports research to examine the cognitive processes that enable bilingual speakers to switch between their dominant and non-dominant languages when producing and comprehending language. The study will conduct behavioral experiments...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) under the CFDA program "Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research" (93.865) will provide $431,750.00 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to conduct an exploratory investigation on bilingualism, executive function, and brain organization in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The project aims to 1) characterize the associations between bilingualism...
- This $699,977 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to investigate the impact of bilingualism on inhibitory control processes and executive function. The project, conducted by Nova Southeastern University, Inc., will use electroencephalography to directly measure brain activity while English-speaking monolinguals and Spanish/English bilinguals perform executive function tasks. The...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $149,999 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) to conduct a series of experiments exploring the cognitive benefits of bilingualism across the lifespan. The research aims to identify patterns of language and cognitive change in aging populations, with a focus on understanding the reasons why bilingual adults tend to preserve better cognitive...
- This $149,804 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) will support research to understand how language experience shapes language development. The research will combine functional neuroimaging (fMRI) of brain responses to language in children, adolescents, and adults with computational modeling using large language models (LLMs)...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $258,811 Project Grant to the California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. to support the study of neuroplasticity of language and cognitive processes in bilingualism and multilingualism. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award will provide funding from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024 for the acquisition of electroencephalography...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $250,000 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to New York University (NYU) for the "Neural Bases of Bilingual Language Production" project. The project aims to study how the brain processes and produces language in bilingual individuals, particularly examining how the brain uses different grammatical rules when speaking multiple languages. The research will involve measuring brain...
This federal Project Grant award 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 project aims to develop a comprehensive understanding of language control mechanisms across comprehension and production in diverse bilingual populations, including both unimodal (using the same perceptual and motoric systems for both languages) and bimodal (using separate systems for each language) bilinguals. Through a series of experiments involving language switching and mixing between comprehension (listening/sign) and production (picture naming), the $363,838 project will compare the language control strategies employed by unimodal and bimodal bilingual individuals. This research is expected to inform the development of tailored diagnostic tools, interventions, and communication strategies for diverse bilingual children and adults. The project will be conducted at the University of California, San Diego over a 5-year period from August 2025 to July 2030.
