- This Project Grant award, valued at $183,309.00 and running from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2028, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The project aims to develop artificial touch sensations that feel natural and intuitive for users of bionic limbs. By using low-cost, non-invasive electrical stimulation techniques that mimic natural nerve signals, the research seeks to create a more seamless and comfortable interface between...
- This $147,486 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) will fund research conducted by Baylor College of Medicine to investigate causal inference in bimanual touch. The research aims to characterize how visual feedback affects tactile sensitivity to timing differences across the hands, and identify brain regions associated with causal...
- The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) awarded a $366,700 Project Grant under the "Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health" (CFDA 93.286) program to The Leland Stanford Junior University. The project aims to develop specifications for wearable devices that can act as haptic sensory prostheses to replace lost touch sensation due to conditions like amputation, diabetes, and stroke. The key objectives are to:...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant award for $212,026.00 aims to develop artificial touch technology that feels natural and intuitive for people with prosthetic arms. The research, led by Elizabethtown College, a primarily undergraduate institution, seeks to create biomimetic electrocutaneous (EC) stimulation algorithms that can restore a sense of touch without requiring surgical implants. This non-invasive approach could improve functional...
- This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $440,000.00 was provided by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program. The grant supports research to develop novel analytical tools based on machine learning techniques, such as Cycle-GAN, to enable the "transfer" of neural decoders originally derived from monkey data to be used for intracortical...
- The federal Project Grant award of $221,224 was provided 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). The award will fund research to develop AI language models with working memory constraints that better approximate those of humans, and conduct experiments with human participants to determine the extent to which these models can explain neural...
