This federal Project Grant award of $600,000.00 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the CFDA program "Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders" (93.173), supports research on auditory-motor interactions in neural processing and the frequency-following response. The research aims to investigate how the human auditory system balances the competing functions of attenuating self-generated sounds while remaining vigilant to external stimuli, and how this processing changes when sounds are unexpected. The research will use non-invasive methods like electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging to map neural processing of self-generated and passively perceived sounds, both expected and unexpected, in order to advance understanding of human communication processes and disorders. The award was made on August 1, 2025 with an ultimate completion date of July 31, 2028.
