This federal Project Grant award of $235,500 from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will fund a research study at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. The study aims to identify how decision-making in schizophrenia is impacted by attentional, behavioral, and cognitive processes preceding the decision point. The research will leverage concurrent fMRI and eye-tracking to characterize attentional biases and...
This $480,834 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) will fund research to leverage electronic health records (EHRs) and advanced analytics to develop predictive models for clinical outcomes in psychosis-related disorders. The key products and services to be delivered include: Developing machine learning-based individual-level prediction models to forecast outcomes such as treatment response, illness...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants supports research to investigate the mechanisms of auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia. The $423,500 grant awarded on July 1, 2024 will fund a 2-year study at the University of Rochester to evaluate whether auditory hallucinations are associated with impaired auditory processing of speech and increased influence of prior knowledge on speech perception. The research...
This $246,000 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) aims to investigate the role of the dentate gyrus, a part of the hippocampus, in the pathophysiology of psychosis. The primary objective is to reverse-translate discoveries from post-mortem human brain analyses to modulate dentate gyrus excitatory neuron activity in an age-dependent manner using chemogenetic techniques. The project will...

(Nygc) to leverage electronic health records and machine learning for clinical outcome prediction and sub-classification of psychosis-related disorders. The 5-year research project aims to build predictive models for treatment response, illness severity, medical comorbidities, and diagnostic transitions in schizophrenia. It will also...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $287,000.00 in funding to the University of Chicago to conduct research on clinical outcome prediction for psychosis-related disorders. The key objectives of the project are to: 1) Leverage electronic health record databases to build machine learning-based models to predict outcomes such as treatment response, illness severity, medical...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under CFDA Program 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants, provides $417,200.00 in funding to Emory University to characterize and manipulate large-scale neural activity patterns in the brain. The key objectives are to: 1) Use simultaneous wide-field optical imaging and functional MRI to determine if patterns of quasi-periodic brain activity observed in fMRI reflect underlying neural dynamics, and 2) Assess whether...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in the amount of $11,737,873 on July 11, 2024. The project, titled "Phenotypes Reimagined to Define Clinical Treatment and Outcome Research (PREDICTOR)," aims to develop clinical signatures for predicting key outcomes, such as treatment disengagement, emergency room visits, and hospitalizations, in young adults...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $162,000.00 to investigate the transcriptional diversity of the human mediodorsal thalamus and its role in psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The award recipient, the Research Foundation For Mental Hygiene, Inc. (RFMH), will use single-nucleus RNA-sequencing and single-cell ATAC-sequencing to define cell type-specific gene...

This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) provides $423,500 to the University of Rochester to study visual perception and predictive processing in individuals with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The research aims to use EEG experiments to derive measures of top-down predictive processing in the early visual cortex, and to relate these indices to positive symptoms of psychosis across diagnostic groups. The award period runs from May 5, 2025 to May 4, 2027. The project seeks to produce interpretable biomarkers of predictive perception that could improve understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of psychotic disorders and potentially inform early detection or novel diagnostic approaches.
