This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $781,119 to the University of California, San Francisco to conduct research on the neural population dynamics that represent unconditioned and conditioned stimuli in the ventral hippocampus. The 5-year project aims to leverage anatomical targeting, large-scale population recording, computational tools, and cell-type specific manipulation to...
This federal Project Grant award of $692,043 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) supports research to investigate the role of presynaptic homeostatic plasticity in mental health disorders such as autism and intellectual disability. The award recipient, The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), will conduct research to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying homeostatic plasticity and...
This federal Project Grant award of $1,920,113, awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), supports a research project titled "Narrowing the Mechanistic Gap for Anterior Prefrontal Cortex Function". The project aims to conduct a deep dive on the anatomy and function of the anterior lateral prefrontal cortex (ALPFC) region of the brain, which has been implicated in various mental health disorders such as...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), is funding research to mechanistically uncover the neuroanatomical substrates of anxiety-related brain circuits in humans. The $418,750 award, effective February 1, 2025 through January 31, 2030, will support a research project led by Yale University to investigate the roles of the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex and anterior insula in safety assessment...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), is funding a $211,248 research project to elucidate the neural mechanisms governing fear and anxiety responses within the human hippocampal-amygdala circuit. The project aims to 1) investigate the acquisition, extinction, and renewal of fear responses, 2) explore whether targeted stimulation of the amygdala can facilitate recovery from maladaptive fear...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), will support research on the mechanisms and functions of temporal coordination in the entorhinal-hippocampal network. The total funding amount is $571,694, with the award period running from September 23, 2024 to June 30, 2029. The research aims to elucidate how the fine temporal coordination of neuronal activity across entorhinal and hippocampal...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $1,401,862 Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) program to the University of California, Berkeley. The 5-year grant, which commenced on September 21, 2024, will support research to investigate the role of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) in inhibiting habitual responses in the striatum to enable goal-directed decision-making. The researchers will use a novel behavioral task and advanced neural recording...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $1,453,943 Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) for the period of June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2028. The grant will fund the development of an integrated, portable sensor suite to concurrently record neural activity, physiological arousal, motor signals, and physical interactions in social environments. The project aims to track neuro-behavioral attention...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), will fund a $196,597 research project to investigate the information processing changes underlying a high-risk autism spectrum disorder (ASD) gene in rats. The project aims to determine the changes to the hippocampus and its communication with other brain regions in the context of this ASD gene, using advanced techniques such as automated...
The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), through its Office of Research Administration division, has been awarded a $432,500 Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R21) from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The goal of this 2-year project is to use amygdala slice electrophysiology to examine the specific neural inputs and molecular mechanisms responsible for the enhanced excitatory drive in the basolateral...
