This federal Project Grant award of $470,594 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program supports research to identify the neural circuits and synaptic plasticity mechanisms underlying vocal memory and imitation learning. The primary objectives are to use advanced neuroscience techniques, including optogenetics and synaptic mapping, to define the specific cell types and synaptic pathways that encode memories of vocal models and guide precise vocal imitation. This research will be conducted by the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, a prominent academic medical center with significant expertise in neuroscience research and federal grant funding. The project will run from Apr 2025 to Mar 2030, contributing to the broader scientific understanding of how the brain processes and retains memories to enable learned behaviors like speech and language development.
