This Notice announces participation by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) in NOT-MH-20-110, “Collaborative Research in Computational Neuroscience (CRCNS) NSF Innovative Approaches to Science and Engineering Research on Brain Function.” The CRCNS initiative represents a collaboration between NSF, NIH, and several international biomedical research agencies to support innovative research in computational neuroscience. This field provides a rich theoretical foundation and technical approaches for understanding complex neurobiological systems, building on the theory, methods, and findings of computer science, neuroscience, and numerous other disciplines. Through the CRCNS program, participating NSF Directorates and NIH Institutes support innovative interdisciplinary collaborative research to advance the understanding of nervous system function, mechanisms underlying nervous system disorders, and computational strategies used by the nervous system.
Among other topics of interest, NICHD encourages computational neuroscience approaches to the developmental emergence of learning, representation, memory consolidation and retrieval, spatial navigation, language, social processing, intellectual/cognitive disabilities, and complex cognition such as reasoning, mathematics, and problem solving.
All other aspects of the Notice remain the same.
