The BRAIN Initiative is offering this grant to catalyze the development of cutting-edge theories, computational models, and analytical tools. This grant is for the purpose of deriving a deeper understanding of brain function from complex neuroscience datasets. The solicited tools encompass a range of innovations, including methods to integrate or formulate new theories, conceptual frameworks for organizing and fusing data, multiscale/multiphysics models to generate testable hypotheses, and novel analytical techniques to support or refute hypotheses about brain function. A key expectation is that the tools developed under this funding opportunity will be made widely accessible to the broader neuroscience research community for their utilization and adaptation. Investigative studies funded by this grant should focus primarily on model parameter estimation and validating the developed tools.

| Description: | This FOA solicits the development of theories, computational models, and analytical tools to derive understanding of brain function from complex neuroscience data. Proposed tools could include tools to integrate existing theories or formulate new theories; conceptual frameworks to organize or fuse data to infer general principles of brain function; multiscale/multiphysics models to generate new testable hypotheses to design/drive future experiments; new analytical methods to either support or refute a stated hypothesis about brain function.. It is expected that the tools developed under this FOA will be made widely available to the neuroscience research community for their use and modification. Investigative studies should be limited to model parameter estimation and/or validity testing of the tools being developed. |
