Description
This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) solicits applications for the development of next generation sensors and bioelectronic devices that synchronize with brain recordings. The goal is to use sensor and neural recording data to generate new computational models of behavior in both human and animal models. The solicitation addresses the lack of quantitative approaches and models to understand complex behavior in naturalistic settings. It focuses on acquiring synchronized data to build computational models of brain-behavior relationships.
