- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Louisville $1,167,105 on August 21, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to conduct a randomized controlled trial of a digital written exposure therapy intervention for eating disorders. The funded research expands a successfully completed pilot trial to establish self-guided facing eating disorder fears (SG-FEDF)—an entirely digital, self-guided written imaginal exposure therapy protocol—as an...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia $170,024 on May 4, 2026, to support a mentored K23 career development project examining computational learning mechanisms underlying aberrant food approach in youth with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID). Under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), the research project will use computational modeling—specifically active inference and reinforcement learning approaches—to...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $761,595 on June 1, 2026, under Mental Health Research Grants (CFDA 93.242) to evaluate efficiency of evidence accumulation as a neurodevelopmental mechanism of transdiagnostic risk for psychopathology using computational modeling approaches. The research investigates how neurocognitive abilities supporting adaptive decision-making and self-regulation—inhibition, working memory, and related...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the Regents of the University of Minnesota $403,282 on August 15, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop AI-based screenomic analysis methods for studying the relationship between adolescent digital experiences and psychopathological symptoms. The research transforms over 38 million smartphone screenshots from 154 adolescents into structured records of digital experiences. The project develops computational...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Southern California $1.105 million on August 7, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to establish a global framework for harmonized functional MRI analysis in psychiatry. The project will harmonize resting-state fMRI datasets across eight psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders—schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, major depression disorder, obsessive compulsive...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. $405,505 on September 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to investigate how daily social media engagement influences mood and coping among socially disconnected adolescents in rural and low-resource areas. The research comprises two stages. Stage 1 will collect one month of passive mobile-use data from 20 rural adolescents ages 13–17 to derive preliminary...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Texas at Dallas $828,822 on September 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to investigate biobehavioral mechanisms linking physical activity, sedentary behavior, self-regulation, and loss of control eating in children and adolescents. The research employs a multi-method biobehavioral approach integrating neuroimaging, accelerometry, neurocognitive assessments, and ecological momentary assessment...
