The National Institute of Mental Health is offering a grant to support invasive neural recording studies focusing on mental health-related questions. This opportunity aims to explore human brain neural circuitry and dynamics relevant to moods, emotions, cognitive functions, and behaviors, with the ability to stimulate for causal tests. The grant targets gaps in understanding neural circuit function in mental health disorders, emphasizing translational potential. Research should address specific questions suitable for invasive recording methods, with technology and therapy development falling outside the scope of this opportunity. Deadline: Jun 10, 2021.

Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage applications to pursue invasive neural recording studies focused on mental health-relevant questions. Invasive neural recordings provide an unparalleled window into the human brain to explore the neural circuitry and neural dynamics underlying complex moods, emotions, cognitive functions, and behaviors with high spatial and temporal resolution. Additionally, the ability to stimulate, via the same electrodes, allows for direct causal tests by modulating network dynamics. This funding opportunity aims to target a gap in the scientific knowledge of neural circuit function related to mental health disorders. Researchers should target specific questions suited to invasive recording modalities that have high translational potential. Development of new technologies and therapies are outside the scope of this FOA. |
