BRAIN Initiative: Theories, Models and Methods for Analysis of Complex Data from the Brain (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
National Institutes of Health · RFA-DA-27-004 · Deadline: November 8, 2027
Program-level history — this opportunity doesn't publish per-opportunity awards, so these numbers describe its parent program (CFDA 93.173, Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders), not this competition alone. Labeled that way on purpose.
178 unique recipients in the sample; 89 repeat winners.
range $18k – $10.4M
Draw-down reality (program)
Across 98 completed awards in this program (FY2021+ sample, USAspending outlay records), grantees ultimately drew a median 93% of obligated funds. A median well under 100% means underspend or early closure is common here — worth knowing before promising a spend-down timeline.
Listing summary
The Theories, Models and Methods (TMM) initiative will support the development of computational tools for understanding dynamic brain circuits that are made broadly accessible to the greater research community. This program supports applications focused on tool building and dissemination in the domain of theories about neural circuit mechanisms, models of circuit structure and function, and/or computational methods of analysis spanning across scales from neurons to behavior. The development of novel theories, computational models and methods for understanding brain function will help character…
