• 13NIH research projects

NIH-funded research (13)

Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.

• Identifying brain cells tied to internal body signals

  A research grant aims to map brain cell groups that help the body sense its own internal state, which could illuminate how addictions and eating disorders develop.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11454742

• How nerve-cell signaling controls synapses for learning and memory

  Researchers are building new imaging and genetic tools to watch and control tiny signaling events inside brain cells to better understand memory loss in Alzheimer's disease.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11324591

• How the brain develops matching vision from both eyes

  Researchers want to understand how the brain learns to align signals from both eyes so we see a single, clear image, which is relevant to conditions like amblyopia and strabismus.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11226182

• Improving tools to measure brain signals and neurotransmitter activity

  This study is looking at new ways to see how brain chemicals work in real-time, which could help us understand brain function better and eventually lead to new treatments for neurological conditions.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11124224

• How specific acetylcholine receptors in a hippocampus region affect memory stability

  Researchers are looking at whether activating certain muscarinic acetylcholine receptors on hippocampal CA1 neurons helps form and keep memories, with relevance to aging and Alzheimer's disease.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11094832

• Understanding how brain signaling affects learning and memory.

  This study is looking at how tiny parts of brain cells help us learn and remember, using special tools to see and change their activity in both brain samples and living animals, so we can better understand how our brains work.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11091597

• Understanding how the brain encodes memories in sequences

  This study is looking at how our brains create and store memories, especially focusing on a part of the brain called the hippocampus, and it’s designed for anyone interested in understanding how memories work, including those with memory issues.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11082495

• Understanding How the Brain Adapts and Learns New Behaviors

  This project aims to uncover the brain's fundamental ways of adapting and learning, which could help us better understand conditions like ADHD and OCD.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-11009685

• Understanding how mitochondria support learning and memory

  This study is looking at how tiny parts of our cells called mitochondria help our brains get the energy they need for learning and memory, especially in conditions like Alzheimer's disease, to find new ways to improve cognitive health.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-10909599

• Investigating how certain brain receptors affect memory formation and stability

  This study is looking at how certain brain receptors affect memory, especially as we age or in people with Alzheimer's, to help us understand why memory problems happen and find ways to improve them.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-10907042

• Investigating how brain signals are modulated during behavior.

  This study is looking at how brain cells communicate and change when we experience different things, using special tools to see how important chemicals like serotonin and dopamine are released during activities, which could help us understand brain function better and find new ways to treat brain disorders.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-10900670

• Understanding how the brain senses internal body states

  This study is looking at how our brains understand signals from our bodies, which is important for things like hunger and thirst, and it's especially for people interested in learning more about conditions like eating disorders and addiction.

  NIH research Max Planck Florida Corporation · Jupiter, UNITED STATES · NIH-10687590

• Understanding how brain mechanisms adapt our behaviors

  This study is looking at how our brains learn and adapt to new behaviors, especially for people with ADHD and OCD, to find out how we can help improve treatments for these conditions.
