The National Institutes of Health Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative is offering the Targeted BRAIN Circuits Projects Grant (TargetedBCP). This grant supports research projects focusing on understanding how circuit activity contributes to mental processes and behaviors within a 5-year timeframe. Projects should investigate specific neural systems like perception, decision-making, and emotion, integrating theory, data analysis, and experimental design to create predictive models. Utilizing non-human animal models, applicants must justify species selection for elucidating universal circuit principles. Proposals should control stimuli/behaviors, record/manipulate neural activity, and enhance comprehension of central nervous system circuits through systematic approaches. Applications for this grant close on March 8, 2017.

| Description: | This FOA solicits applications for research projects that use innovative, methodologically-integrated approaches to understand how circuit activity gives rise to mental experience and behavior. The goal is to support projects that can realize a meaningful outcome within 5 years. Applications should address circuit function in the context of specific neural systems such as sensation, perception, attention, reasoning, intention, decision-making, emotion, navigation, communication or homeostasis. Projects should link theory and data analysis to experimental design and should produce predictive models as deliverables. Projects should aim to improve the understanding of circuits of the central nervous system by systematically controlling stimuli and/or behavior while actively recording and/or manipulating dynamic patterns of neural activity. Projects can use non-human animal species, and applications should explain how the selected species offers ideal conditions for revealing general principles about the circuit basis of a specific behavior. |
