Establishing a Research Network to Guide Foundational Research on Human Consciousness
Funds a single award to build the coordination network, standards and shared framework for consciousness research across fourteen NIH institutes.
Coma. Delirium. Dementia. Anaesthesia. Sleep disorders. Each involves consciousness, and each is a serious condition NIH already funds research on — but the neural mechanisms behind conscious states themselves are still poorly understood, which limits how well clinicians can diagnose and treat all of them.
This funds one award: establishing the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research Network to G…
Establishing a single trans-NIH cooperative agreement to coordinate foundational research on human consciousness — harmonising definitions, evaluating measurement approaches, addressing ethical questions and building interdisciplinary training — rather than funding discrete, hypothesis-driven research projects.
