This grant is for supporting basic behavioral research projects that investigate multisensory processing in perception and various behavioral or social outcomes. Issued by the NIH Basic Behavioral and Social Sciences Opportunity Network (OppNet), this opportunity seeks applications focusing on two or more sensory modalities. Research should explore how different sensory inputs are integrated and how cognitive or affective processes interact with multisensory information to influence fundamental behavioral targets. While it is known that sensory input is processed interactively, there is a significant gap in understanding how diverse modalities truly integrate to shape perception and broader behavioral and social outcomes. The funding aims to advance knowledge in this less developed research area.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued as part of the NIH Basic Behavioral and Social Sciences Opportunity Network (OppNet), encourages research grant applications investigating multisensory processing in perception or other behavioral and social outcomes. The FOA is intended to support basic behavioral research projects focused on two or more sensory modalities. This includes research examining ways in which cognitive or affective processes interact with multisensory input to influence basic behavioral targets. While evidence suggests that sensory input is processed interactively instead of additively, research is less developed regarding how different modalities are integrated for perception and behavioral or social outcomes. |
