This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants) supports a study to identify neuroethical issues and decisional needs associated with the early use of neurotechnology, and to develop and test a patient-centered decision aid (PTDA) for advanced neurotechnology that can be used at different disease stages. The $609,456 award to The Pennsylvania State University, with a sub-award to Baylor College of Medicine, aims to generate new knowledge on neuroethical concerns and decisional needs regarding early neurotechnology use, and to create a PTDA to support shared decision-making and responsible use of these interventions across disease progression. The project period runs from Aug 2024 to Apr 2028.
