This BRAIN Initiative grant is for developing next-generation sensor and bioelectronic devices capable of synchronizing with brain recordings. The purpose is to address the current lack of quantitative approaches and models for understanding complex human and animal behavior in naturalistic settings. The grant aims to generate new computational models of behavior by leveraging synchronized sensor and neural recording data. Specifically, this funding focuses on the innovation of advanced sensor technologies designed to acquire and seamlessly integrate data with simultaneous brain recordings, facilitating the construction of comprehensive and insightful computational models of brain-behavior interactions.

| Description: | This NOFO solicits applications for next generation sensor and bioelectronic device development that will synchronize with brain recordings. The sensor and neural recording data will be used to generate new computational models of behavior in human and animal models. There has been a lack of quantitative approaches and models to understand the complexity of human and animal behavior in naturalistic settings. This NOFO focuses on the development of next generation sensors to acquire data and synchronize it with simultaneous brain recordings to build computational models. |
