The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) received a $427,625 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866) to develop and validate a computational framework for identifying excitation-inhibition imbalances in Alzheimer's disease (AD) using multi-modal neuroimaging data. The goal is to create an innovative technique that can noninvasively detect circuit-level disruptions in brain networks associated with AD pathology, which...
This $205,619 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research) supports research to map the landscape of the aged human brain and model neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. The University of Washington will apply explainable AI methods to human brain datasets to identify molecular drivers of brain aging, then manipulate these drivers in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) models to generate aging phenotypes in neurons and glia. This two-phase...
This $300,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will support research at the University of Pittsburgh to develop new analytical tools and computational models to understand how the brain selectively processes relevant information and coordinates information flow across brain regions. The project aims to integrate existing datasets on large-scale neural activity and anatomical connectivity...
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will develop computational tools to harmonize multi-site neuroimaging data and enable personalized analysis of subjective cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease-related disorders through a $2.8 million project grant from the National Institute on Aging. Under the award effective May 1, 2022, UNC-Chapel Hill will create machine learning frameworks for feature-level and image-level harmonization of data from 79 imaging centers involving over 5,300...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) aims to better understand the neural mechanisms underlying "attentional resilience" - the ability to maintain robust attentional control despite physiological stressors such as neuroinflammation or neurodegeneration. The $3,871,366 award to Duke University will evaluate how neural activity patterns linked to attentional control, including EEG alpha power and sensory processing, contribute to...
This $329,099 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program. The grant aims to develop new computational models to uncover the functional architecture of the brain and its role in enabling complex behaviors like navigation and decision-making. Specifically, the project will: Identify the brain systems underlying navigation in zebrafish larvae using advanced optical imaging...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) will provide $136,778 to Wake Forest University Health Sciences to conduct research on the impacts of cerebral small vessel disease on brain networks and cognitive impairment. The key research objectives are to: 1) use advanced brain network modeling to quantify the resilience and disruption caused by cerebral microbleeds, 2) develop an integrative machine learning model to improve prediction...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to New York University School of Medicine provides $254,250 to develop a biologically relevant multi-scale model of brain aging using advanced diffusion MRI (dMRI) techniques. The goal is to create a brain microstructure age framework that provides insights into the processes underlying brain aging and Alzheimer's disease/related dementias (AD/ADRD). The award period runs from Sep 15, 2024 to Jun...
This $2,151,878 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), supports research at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) and its subrecipient, the University of Pennsylvania, to map the causal genetic-imaging-clinical pathway for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The key products and services to be delivered through this 3-year project include: Developing robust functional connectome analysis and causal...
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill received a $800,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation on May 1, 2021 to fund research exploring the interaction of cholinergic and dopaminergic modulation underlying associative learning. The research is being conducted under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which supports basic scientific research to advance understanding of major problems and strengthen the nation's biological research enterprise....
