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.

R15Activity Code Description:
Supports small-scale research projects at educational institutions that provide baccalaureate or advanced degrees for a significant number of the Nation’s research scientists but that have not been major recipients of NIH support. The goals of the program are to (1) support meritorious research, (2) expose students to research, and (3) strengthen the research environment of the institution. Awards provide limited Direct Costs, plus applicable F&A costs, for periods not to exceed 36 months. This activity code uses multi-year funding authority; however, OER approval is NOT needed prior to an IC using this activity code. |
Supraspinal Processing of Pain Affect @ University of Texas Arlington
[unreadable] DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term objective of this project is to use operant behavioral techniques to understand the neuroanatomical and neurochemical features of the neural network involved in processes the affective/motivation component of pain. In order to do this, we have recently developed and validated a behavioral test paradigm based on operant techniques to explore the complex nature of pain in rat models of nociception. Unlike traditional threshold measurement techniques, the general paradigm provides animals with the opportunity to perform purposeful behavior to escape and/or avoid noxious stimulation. The assumption is that escape and avoidance behavior is an indication that animals find the nociceptive stimulus to be aversive. We will test the central hypothesis of this project that the function of the anterior cingulate cortex is critical for the processing of affective and/or motivational aspects of pain processing pursuing the following two specific aims: (1) Determine the extent that the anterior cingulate cortex processes the sensory and affective/motivational component of pain. (2) Determine the relationship of the output of processing the affective/motivational component of pain to the brainstem nociceptive circuit. We hypothesize that non-pharmacological and pharmacological manipulations of the anterior cingulate cortex will selectively alter the processing of the affective/motivational component of pain and that the encoding of the affective/motivational component of pain by the anterior cingulate cortex provides input to brainstem nociceptive circuits that consequently modulates nociceptive input. Collectively, the outcomes of this project will further establish the role of the anterior cingulate cortex in processing nociceptive input. Once established, the overall goal of exploring the limbic system neural circuit related to the selection of competing motivational drives can then be explored. [unreadable] [unreadable]
