Project Grant R21NS101373

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) awarded a $454,024 Project Grant (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the Research Foundation For Mental Hygiene, Inc. (RFMH) to conduct research on high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) as a potential biomarker for Alzheimer's disease progression. The key goals of this 2-year project are to: (1) determine if HFOs originate in the hippocampus and expand to other brain regions as Alzheimer's pathology advances, (2) assess whether disrupting HFOs can improve...

Summary: Neurophysiological Correlates of Cognition Over Multi-Day Timescales in Epilepsy The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded Massachusetts General Hospital $234,630 on August 1, 2025, under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders program (CFDA 93.853) to conduct a five-year prospective research study examining the neurophysiological basis of cognitive impairment in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The research...

Florida International University was awarded a $250,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) to develop an artificial intelligence-enabled real-time system for early epileptic seizure detection and prediction. The two-year project will design and develop advanced machine learning algorithms to identify neuromarkers in wearable electroencephalography data that can predict epileptic seizures. Researchers will...

This Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) provides $489,500 in funding to The Children's Hospital Corporation, doing business as Boston Children's Hospital, to conduct research on early predictors of late talking and primary language impairment (PLI) in young children. The research project aims to trace longitudinal trajectories of electroencephalogram (EEG) features from 2-24 months...

The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) awarded a Project Grant of $438,836 to The Trustees of the Stevens Institute of Technology under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program. The award supports research to develop a unified paradigm using simultaneous multimodal measurement of scalp EEG and intracranial EEG (iEEG) signals to estimate the electrophysiological networks of the whole brain....

This Project Grant, awarded by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286), supports research development at the University of California, Los Angeles to create predictive algorithms for pediatric postoperative complications. The $174,861 award, obligated on March 10, 2026, with completion targeted for February 28, 2030, funds the development and...

The National Science Foundation awarded Jelikalite Corp. a $276,000 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program to develop an EEG-guided transcranial photobiomodulation device for autism treatment. The Small Business Innovation Research Phase I award will support Jelikalite in demonstrating proof of concept for a non-invasive, wearable medical device that stimulates brain tissue with near-infrared radiation. Integrated electroencephalography feedback will monitor...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (CFDA 47.041) awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) for a collaborative research effort titled "Analysis and Control of Nonlinear Oscillatory Networks for the Design of Novel Cortical Stimulation Strategies." This 3-year project aims to develop new theories and tools to predict the onset and spreading of epileptic seizures, and to inform the use of novel electrical brain...
