This federal Project Grant award, with funding of $197,576 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) program, aims to investigate cortical inhibition as a biomarker of response to accelerated theta burst stimulation (ATBS) for the treatment of suicidal ideation in individuals with treatment-resistant depression. The project will conduct a randomized, double-blind clinical trial to compare the efficacy of bilateral ATBS versus...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) provides $675,676 to The Medical University of South Carolina to determine the efficacy of combining two known anti-depressant treatments, aerobic exercise and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, on post-stroke depressive symptoms. The award will also examine whether successful reduction in depressive symptoms is associated with improved...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the CFDA program Mental Health Research Grants (93.242), provides $1,927,030.00 to the University of Miami to implement and evaluate strategies for increasing the reach of evidence-based treatments for depression and treatment adherence in persons with HIV in South Africa.

This Project Grant award of $492,869 from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) will fund a 5-year study to evaluate the effects of a modified cardiac rehabilitation program, called PC3-BAMS, on improving physical and psychosocial function in community-dwelling stroke survivors with and without post-stroke depression. The Medical University of South Carolina, the prime awardee, will deliver the...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), under the Research and Training in Complementary and Integrative Health program (CFDA 93.213), provides $706,367 to New York University to conduct a feasibility trial testing the use of a music listening intervention for mental health recovery in chronic stroke patients. The key product or service to be delivered is the development and testing of a remote, music-based intervention guided...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $156,500 Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to Emory University to identify patients with true treatment failure for major depressive disorder (MDD) who may benefit from earlier referral to alternative treatments like transcranial magnetic stimulation, ketamine, and vagus nerve stimulation. The project aims to use trajectory classification methods to empirically separate partial response from true...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $784,096 and issued by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), aims to develop improved methods for assessing brain excitability in patients with depression. The primary objectives are to: 1) investigate how adjusting transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) parameters affects neural activity measured through intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG); 2) optimize a targeting system...
This federal Project Grant award for $818,253 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA Program 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants supports a 5-year longitudinal study by the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to evaluate the association between abnormalities in the neuromodulatory system and symptoms of depression, cognition, and motor frailty in older adults with late-life depression. The study aims to demonstrate that structural and functional...

The award supports a multi-site trial (the TR-2 Trial)...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $1,340,333 to the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston to conduct a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of tele-delivered behavioral activation by trained lay counselors (Tele-BA-S) in preventing post-stroke depression among low-income, older stroke survivors with subthreshold depression. The key products and services to be delivered under this grant include:

  1. Conducting the Tele-BA-S intervention, which involves providing 5 weekly videoconferenced behavioral activation sessions and 2 monthly follow-up booster calls, aimed at increasing engagement in value-based activities and reducing avoidance behaviors.

  2. Evaluating the short-term (2-6 months) and long-term (9 months) effectiveness of Tele-BA-S compared to treatment-as-usual on reducing symptoms of subthreshold depression and preventing the development of post-stroke depression.

  3. Investigating potential mediators of the Tele-BA-S intervention's effectiveness, including self-efficacy, motivation, and activity engagement.

The grant is awarded for the period of June 4, 2025 through April 30, 2030 and is intended to contribute to NIMH's priorities of reducing mental health disparities in low-income, disabled, and aging populations through evidence-based interventions.
