The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director awarded a $1,255,340 Project Grant under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310) to the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) on September 13, 2024. The grant will fund research to understand how the brain processes somatosensory (touch) feedback to enable skilled movement control. The key products or services to be delivered under this grant include simultaneous high-density neural recordings from the motor...
This federal Project Grant award of $738,566.00 was awarded on April 1, 2025 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 at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California to define the circuit mechanisms that regulate somatosensory feedback in the brain. The research aims to determine if inhibitory mechanisms for...
This Project Grant award of $1,208,677.00 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) supports research at Harvard Medical School to investigate the diverse cell types and specialized circuitry of the cerebellar cortex. The primary goal is to clarify how different subtypes of cerebellar neurons contribute to signal processing and behavior, with the aim of...
