This federal 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) program, provides $527,037 to New York University (NYU) to conduct research on the neural representation of perceptual decisions, confidence, and actions in the human basal ganglia and thalamus. The research aims to determine how the brain structures essential for movement bind thoughts and actions, and how this neural activity contributes to behavioral adjustments. Through experiments with human subjects undergoing deep brain stimulation, the project will test the diversity of neural responses in the basal ganglia output nodes and motor thalamus, examine how decision strategies are adapted based on past actions and outcomes, and explore the causal role of these neural responses in driving behavioral changes. The goal is to leverage these insights to develop brain stimulation strategies that can treat both movement and cognitive deficits in neuropsychiatric disorders. The award period runs from June 12, 2025 to May 31, 2030.
