This federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), aims to develop and evaluate a virtual reality (VR) cognitive training intervention called NeuroTrainer. The $978,628 award to Neurotrainer, Inc., with a project period from September 1, 2024 to February 28, 2026, will focus on three key objectives: 1) Improving attentional and executive control function, 2) Evaluating the efficacy of...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will support a $673,803 research study on the relationship between parent-child neurobehavioral synchrony and early ADHD symptom trajectories in preschool-aged children. The 5-year study, running from December 2024 to November 2029, will be conducted by the University of Pittsburgh to examine how parent-child focused attention and neural synchrony influence...
This $174,788 National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program focuses on enhancing the assessment and diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The project aims to develop computational approaches to collect and analyze ADHD-related data, leveraging technologies such as inertial movement units, touch-sensitive screens, and high-precision cameras to gather insights into hyperactivity behaviors. The goal is to...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $615,908 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to Nurelm Inc. on August 15, 2024. The project, titled "Using Machine Learning and Sensing to Contextualize Hyperactivity Measurement on Wearable Devices", will develop and validate the LEMURDX software system, which uses smartwatch sensors and machine learning algorithms to objectively measure hyperactivity in children with ADHD. The project aims to refine...
This federal Project Grant award, totaling $794,931 and awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) program, will support a research project titled "EARLY DYADIC SYNCHRONY AND MIDDLE CHILDHOOD OUTCOMES AMONG INFANTS AT GENETIC RISK FOR ADHD OR AUTISM" at the University of California, Davis. The project aims to investigate the influence of early parent-infant synchrony on the development of ADHD and autism spectrum...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $1,978,475 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to The Trustees of Princeton University to study the neural basis of visual attention in the primate brain. The grant, with an award date of August 6, 2024 and ultimate completion date of April 30, 2029, will investigate the temporal dynamics and neural mechanisms underlying visual attention, including how low-frequency rhythms coordinate sensory and motor processes....
This $857,216 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants will be used by Boston Children's Hospital to conduct a longitudinal study examining the neurodevelopmental trajectories and social determinants leading to early symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and disruptive behaviors in children. The study will leverage an existing large, diverse cohort of low-resourced infants seen in an...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $671,533 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. The grant, titled "ADHD PRESMART: ADHD PRESMA RESPONSE INHIBITION THERAPY", will support research into using accelerated intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS) to target the pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) of the brain to modulate inhibitory network biomarkers and...
The federal Project Grant award R15MH134195, totaling $443,458.00, was provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). This grant supports the development, delivery, and evaluation of an adapted Mindfulness Awareness Practices (MAPS) intervention for first-year college students with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The project aims to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the...
This Project Grant award of $910,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences supports research on the "Mechanisms of Willed Attention" at the University of California, Davis (UC Davis). This research, under the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), aims to investigate the brain mechanisms that enable humans to voluntarily direct their attention, especially in the absence of external cues. Using...

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $1,496,542 Project Grant (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the University of California, Davis to study distractibility and attention challenges in academic settings. The 5-year research project aims to develop innovative methods for quantifying distractibility in naturalistic learning environments, including virtual reality classrooms, live classrooms, and students' real-life learning activities. The project will assess distractibility across multiple measures such as behavioral ratings, eye gaze, neural activity, and functional outcomes related to learning and executive functioning. Researchers will investigate distractibility in both neurotypical adolescents and those with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The goal is to improve understanding of attention challenges and inform the development of precision interventions to mitigate the adverse effects of distractibility on youth academic performance.
