Emily Allen
received a three-year Early Career Research (ECR) R21 grant through NIH’s National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), totaling $581,250. By using advanced techniques such as mesoscopic MRI, subcortical neuroimaging, computational modeling, and resting state connectivity, the study titled “Functional and structural characterization of the human auditory cortex using high-resolution MRI,” aims to develop a reliable and precise method for defining and parcellating auditory cortex in humans, and to provide the auditory neuroimaging community with a state-of-the-art multimodal structure-function characterization of the primary auditory cortex.Congratulations on receiving this prestigious grant, Dr. Allen!
