The NIH BRAIN Initiative is offering a grant to support human studies that utilize invasive neural recording and stimulating technologies to investigate high-impact questions in human neuroscience and disorders of the nervous system. The grant aims to overcome limitations by assembling integrated, multi-disciplinary teams for experimental projects or research planning activities. The research conducted should aim to generate data and results that can be used for future funding opportunities under the BRAIN Initiative or NIH Institute appropriations. Application deadline: February 1, 2017.

Additional Information
| Agency Name: | National Institutes of Health |
| Description: | Invasive surgical procedures provide the unique ability to record and stimulate neurons within precisely localized brain structures in humans. Human studies using invasive technology are often constrained by a limited number of patients and resources available to implement complex experimental protocols and are rarely aggregated in a manner that addresses research questions with appropriate statistical power. Therefore, this FOA seeks applications to assemble integrated, multi-disciplinary teams to overcome these fundamental barriers. Projects should investigate high-impact questions in human neuroscience and disorders of the human nervous system. The research should be offered as experimental projects, or exploratory research and planning activities, for building teams, generating data and empirical results that will later compete for continued funding under new or ongoing FOAs of the BRAIN Initiative or under NIH Institute appropriations. |
