This $180,439 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) is supporting new mentored training in the computational neuroscience of higher-order threat learning and memory in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The goal is to advance neurobiological models of anxiety-related psychopathology and set the stage for addressing limitations in PTSD treatments. The research will apply multivariate pattern...
This Project Grant award of $2,384,097, provided by the Defense Health Agency through the Military Medical Research and Development (CFDA 12.420) federal grant program, is funding a hybrid experimental clinical trial to determine the optimal sequencing of interventions to maximize the effectiveness of PTSD treatment. The primary awardee, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, will conduct this research with a planned completion date of August 2028. The project involves two...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) program provides $617,737 to the University of Chicago to investigate a thalamic-hippocampal pathway's role in suppressing and extinguishing contextual fear memories associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The research aims to use innovative techniques like 2-photon microscopy and optogenetics to uncover how the nucleus reuniens region of the...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $1,072,702 Project Grant (R01MH134787) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College. The grant, active from July 2024 through January 2029, will support research investigating the neural substrates underlying the encoding and retrieval of higher-order fear memories. The research aims to elucidate the relationship between intrusive fear memories and...
This $2,317,051 Project Grant was awarded by the Defense Health Agency under the Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420) on September 15, 2023. The grant funds a clinical trial to evaluate the use of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with prolonged exposure therapy to treat chronic post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) and Baylor Research Institute will serve as clinical sites for the study. UTD, led by Principal Investigator...
This $2,763,615 federal Project Grant award from the Department of Defense's Military Medical Research and Development program (CFDA 12.420) supports a randomized controlled trial of brief prolonged exposure therapy for injured individuals admitted to a Level I trauma center. The goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach in preventing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in this patient population. The 4-year study is being conducted by the Baylor Research Institute, a non-profit...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $610,152 to Duke University to study the structural and functional connectivity of the cerebellum in individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma exposure. The project aims to investigate the role of cortico-cerebellar circuits in the pathophysiology of PTSD, with a focus on cerebellar subregion connectivity to cortical and...
This $2,210,781 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) supports research at Children's Hospital Los Angeles to determine the molecular and cellular mechanisms in dopaminergic cells of the zona incerta that contribute to extinction learning. The project aims to illuminate the basic neurobiology underlying deficits in extinction learning, a core pathology of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)....
