Project Grant R01NS144152
- This Project Grant award of $346,803, provided by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), supports research at the University of Chicago to test theories underlying what makes certain stimuli more memorable than others. The project aims to understand the underlying brain mechanisms that determine what information is prioritized for storage in human memory. The research utilizes behavioral experiments, brain imaging, and artificial...
- This $1,309,206 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research to investigate spatial recognition memory processes in patients with epilepsy. The goal is to develop improved cognitive assessments and treatments for the memory deficits commonly experienced by epilepsy patients, which are not well captured by current neuropsychological...
- This federal Project Grant award of $408,541.00 was provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The funding supports research by Drexel University to investigate the role of retrosplenial cortex (RSC) neurons in facilitating memory consolidation during slow-wave sleep. The key objectives of this 2-year project are to: 1) Examine the neural dynamics of RSC layer-5 neurons and their involvement in memory consolidation...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) provides $619,000 to the University of Utah to examine how the brain processes and consolidates different types of memories. Specifically, the research will investigate how learning across memory domains with similar structures (e.g., motor sequence learning and object sequence learning) can be leveraged to improve long-term memory formation. The project utilizes...
- This $375,659 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research conducted by Carnegie Mellon University to study interhemispheric coordination for memory and action. The research aims to advance the fundamental understanding of brain and nervous system structures, functions, and mechanisms related to neurological processes and...
- The federal Project Grant award of $797,402 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) is supporting research at Cornell University to investigate the neural dynamics underlying brain state-dependent memory functions. The research aims to simultaneously monitor memory reactivation and brain states/substates in naturally sleeping mice, with the goal of understanding how the brain continuously incorporates new memories while...
- This federal Project Grant award for $1,042,170.00, provided by 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 apply computational modeling to the analysis of intracranial recording and stimulation data from the human brain. The key objectives are to 1) dissect the neural activity patterns underlying electrophysiology recordings, and 2)...
- This federal Project Grant award of $126,900, provided by 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 develop computational methods for understanding the multi-area neural circuit mechanisms underlying memory-guided movements. The award recipient, The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, will pursue two complementary...
- This federal Project Grant award of $654,287.00 was provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The goal of the project is to develop a computational model of neurocognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis (MS), focusing on updating the outdated framework used to characterize cognition in MS. The project aims to leverage cognitive psychology and...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $208,090 Project Grant to Purdue University under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant is for a 3-year project from August 2024 to July 2027 focused on building a conceptual framework for understanding the "engram" - the neural mechanisms underlying memory retention and recall. The project will employ methods from biology, history, and philosophy of science to develop an updated, expanded...
This federal Project Grant award, valued at $358,313.00, was provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The award will fund a 5-year research study at Drexel University to investigate how prior knowledge shapes the learning and long-term consolidation of new memories in healthy human adults. The research will utilize functional neuroimaging (fMRI) and non-invasive brain stimulation techniques (TMS) to explore the neural mechanisms underlying the positive and negative impacts of prior knowledge on episodic memory formation. The findings from this study are expected to enhance the scientific understanding of how memory processes are influenced by an individual's pre-existing knowledge and experiences.
