BRAIN Initiative: Exploratory Research Opportunities Using Invasive Neural Recording and Stimulating Technologies in the Human Brain
Funds exploratory human studies that record and stimulate neurons directly, using brain access that invasive procedures already create.
Getting direct electrical access to living human brain tissue almost always requires a medical reason to be there in the first place. This notice funds using that access, once it exists, to ask fundamental neuroscience questions.
The scope is exploratory research using invasive surgical procedures that already give direct, precisely localised access to record and stimulate neuronal activity in th…
Exploratory and planning research using invasive surgical procedures that provide direct, precisely localised access to record and stimulate neuronal activity in the human brain, to understand how single-cell and neuronal-ensemble activity produces internal states and observable behaviour — feasibility work laying the groundwork for a later full research grant using the same approach, with participation in a shared NIH consortium working group built into the award.
