Over the next several years, the FAS Research Development group will track and disseminate all funding opportunities related to the BRAIN Initiative. These funding opportunities will be sent to a targeted list of faculty. That list includes faculty affiliates of the Center for Brain Science (CBS) and the Mind Brain Behavior (MBB) Interfaculty Initiative. This project is being carried out in collaboration with the Center for Brain Science. All opportunities will be archived and recipients may unsubscribe at any time. For additional Research Development support (finding funding, proposal development resources, etc.), please visit the Research Development website.
Funding Opportunities
Sponsor Deadline for Letters of Intent (requested): October 23, 2016
Sponsor Deadline for Full Proposals: November 23, 2016
OSP Deadline: November 16, 2016
Award Information: Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project. The maximum project period is 4 years.
 
The focus of this Funding Opportunity Announcement is to better understand how existing non-invasive neuromodulation devices affect brain circuity. This information should shed light on dose/response relationships that could be used for neuroscience applications and clinical interventions.  

Additional information is available in the sponsor announcement. 
Sponsor Deadline for Letters of Intent (requested): October 23, 2016
Sponsor Deadline for Full Proposals: November 23, 2016

Award Information: Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project. The maximum project period is 4 years. 
 
This Funding Opportunity Announcement solicits grant applications in two related but distinct areas. The first area is in the development and testing of novel tools and methods of neuromodulation that go beyond the existing variations on magnetic or electrical stimulation, and that represent more than an incremental advance over existing approaches. The second distinct area that this FOA seeks to encourage is the optimization of existing electrical and magnetic stimulation methods. 

Additional information is available in the sponsor announcement.
