The National Eye Institute (NEI) awarded a $264,226 Project Grant (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) to the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, MA to establish a two-week advanced research training course in visual neuroscience. The goal of the course is to train students in the fundamental concepts of visual neuroscience and modern methods for understanding the visual system, including techniques such as large-scale electron microscopy, multielectrode recording, functional imaging,...
The National Eye Institute (NEI), part of the National Institutes of Health, awarded a $252,573 Project Grant (CFDA 93.867 - Vision Research) to the Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) for the "UCSF Program in Resident Opportunities for Mentored Ophthalmic Training in Experimentation (PROMOTE)" project. The program aims to recruit, train, mentor, and launch diverse resident-investigators with both clinical expertise and scientific, methodological, and...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), provides $247,387 to Stanford University to establish a comprehensive strategy for recruiting, training, and retaining clinician-scientists in ophthalmology research. The overarching objectives are to educate and develop the next generation of clinician-scientists focused on vision-related diseases and disorders, and to enhance research capabilities within ophthalmology...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Eye Institute (NEI) under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), supports a research project focused on understanding genetic and glial support mechanisms in acute and chronic models of photoreceptor degeneration. The total award amount is $385,000.00 over a 4-year period from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2029. The project, led by researchers at Wayne State University, aims to compare the transcriptional, cellular, and functional...
This federal Project Grant award of $371,378.00, provided by the National Eye Institute (CFDA 93.867 Vision Research), supports research to investigate the mechanisms of vision processing at the center-of-gaze (or fovea) in the primary visual cortex (V1) of the macaque monkey. The research aims to provide the first detailed understanding of how the foveal V1 processes high-acuity color vision, which is fundamental to understanding human vision but remains largely unknown. The award was granted...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), supports a research project titled "Development of Human Dorsal Visual Cortex." The $476,451 award, which runs from March 1, 2025 to February 28, 2030, aims to map the structural and functional development of the dorsal visual stream in the human brain across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. The research team at Princeton University will leverage...
This $148,568 Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867), supports research at Emory University to investigate the role of scleral fibroblasts in refractive development and myopia. The primary objectives are to: 1) Identify characteristics of scleral fibroblasts in mouse eyes that undergo normal refractive development versus those exposed to myopic stimuli, and 2) Determine the role of retinoic acid signaling in driving...
This $192,900 Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the Vision Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.867), aims to understand how locomotion affects the flow of visual information between brain areas. The researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine will utilize high-density laminar probes to record population activity from multiple brain areas during different locomotive contexts. They will evaluate communication between areas using multivariate analytic...
The National Eye Institute (NEI) awarded a $124,205 Project Grant under the Vision Research program (CFDA 93.867) to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) effective March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2027. The grant supports research to investigate how the hippocampus and primary visual cortex interact to generate coordinated mental simulations during active behavior. The project aims to test the generality of this coordination by changing external factors, study...
This Project Grant award from the National Eye Institute (NEI), under the federal Vision Research grant program (CFDA 93.867), will fund research to investigate how the gut microbiome impacts the development of the visual system. The $364,324 grant, awarded on Sep 1, 2024, will support a grantee at the University of Oregon to use a zebrafish model to study the specific cellular pathways and microbial products that mediate communication between the intestinal microbiome and the brain to influence...
