We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Cues to Grammatical Relations: a Cross-Linguistic Look @ University of Pennsylvania
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Aims of this research include furthering our understanding of how language is comprehended in the normal human brain. This project aims to make a closer investigation of the interaction of these linguistic cues, in English and Russian adults. The predictive value of several comprehension cues, including discourse status (whether a referent has been mentioned before), voice (the verb's relation to the referents), and word order (whether the subject or object comes before the verb), will be explored, using an eye-tracking paradigm. Experiments will all have a crossed factor design, with discourse status and either voice (English) or word order (Russian) as factors. Participants will view pictures on a computer screen while listening to prerecorded sentences, and will choose the picture that matches the sentence using a computer mouse. Participants will be eye-tracked, allowing for a fine-grained analysis of what referents they are considering at any given time (every 60th of a second) over the course of the sentence. Reaction time (how long participants take to make a mouse click) and accuracy (whether participants click on the correct Picture) will also be analyzed. [unreadable] [unreadable]
