The project will integrate wearable technology and artificial intelligence for behavioral and physiological monitoring alongside...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded The General Hospital Corporation (Massachusetts General Hospital) $790,560 under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) on April 1, 2026. The award funds development of advanced artificial intelligence models to predict differential antidepressant treatment responses by integrating electronic health records and genomic data. Aim 1 involves building a large language model-based, human-in-the-loop active learning framework to...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of California, San Diego $2.115 million on August 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop and evaluate a mobile health system delivering just-in-time adaptive interventions based on dialectical behavior therapy principles for young adults with comorbid major depressive disorder, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and related anxiety conditions. The UNDERSTAND project...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded Ividence Inc. $315,276 on August 5, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop a federated causal inference framework for evaluating the mental health effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs). The project will produce a privacy-preserving, multi-site analytical framework and accompanying R software package to generate real-world evidence on neuropsychiatric outcomes from GLP-1 RA...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded Massachusetts General Hospital $453,750 under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) on September 1, 2026, to develop a closed-loop system for assessing target network engagement using concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation and functional MRI. The recipient is developing a flexible radiofrequency coil array (the RF Cap) that enables functional MRI acquisition simultaneously with transcranial magnetic stimulation in a...
- The National Institute of Mental Health awarded the University of Colorado $430,163 on March 15, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to validate and translate a smartphone-based intervention monitoring approach (SBIM) for adolescents with mood disorders. The project develops a low-burden monitoring strategy to improve adherence to inter-session behavioral and mood tracking in adolescent mental health interventions. Study participants (N=33, ages 13–19 years)...
The National Institute of Mental Health awarded Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. $2.961 million on August 1, 2026, under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to develop standardized digital health data formats for mental health research and clinical care. The award funds five integrated aims. Aim 1 establishes a multidisciplinary consortium of clinicians, researchers, industry representatives, regulators, and patient advocates to develop a governance framework supporting collaborative standard development, including working groups, an ethical advisory board, and a decision-making process modeled after American Psychiatric Association efforts. Aim 2 builds the standard through iterative, evidence-driven development, reviewing existing data standards such as HL7 FHIR and Open mHealth, creating draft schemas, and generating three versioned releases refined via Delphi processes, structured feedback, and technical implementation testing. Aim 3 validates the proposed standard in a decentralized clinical study of anxiety disorders across seven smartphone and wearable platforms, enrolling 338 participants to test harmonization of sensor data including steps and heart rate. Aim 4 develops adoption pathways by partnering with device manufacturers, organizing technical workshops to co-develop API mapping layers, and establishing pathways for journal and funder uptake. Aim 5 ensures long-term sustainability by transitioning stewardship to the American Psychiatric Association, publishing tools and standards as open-source, and launching a validation toolkit and training ecosystem. The work is performed in Boston, Massachusetts, with a period of performance from August 1, 2026, through July 31, 2030.
