The federal Project Grant award R01MH133886 from the National Institute of Mental Health (CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants) provides $1,932,991 to Yale University to conduct research on the neural computations underlying learning, decision-making, and memory across reward and punishment domains. The 5-year study (Award Date: Aug 1, 2024 - Ultimate Completion Date: Mar 31, 2029) will involve behavioral testing of 1,000 participants and functional MRI scanning of 100 participants to characterize these core computations and identify associations with symptoms of anxiety and stress-related disorders. The goal is to improve understanding of the neural basis of these fundamental cognitive processes and their links to psychopathology, which may inform future prevention and treatment approaches.
