Home > Research > Scientific Program Areas (Extramural) Rehabilitation Engineering Program AreaStaff ContactDescriptionThis program supports rehabilitation engineering research that develops modeling, simulation, analysis, robotics and systems engineering technology. Application areas include early stage technology development of neuroprosthesis and neuroengineering, robotics rehabilitation, virtual rehabilitation, and biomechanics of human movement. Specific technologies include the development of intelligent hardware and software for the control of devices and the prediction of physiological signals and human behavior.
Relevant Programs and InitiativesNIH Bioengineering Consortium (BECON) Biology of Manual Therapies (R21) Neurotechnology Research, Development, and Enhancement (R21) (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-06-278.html) Neurotechnology Research, Development, and Enhancement - SBIR (R43/R44) (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-07-389.html) Advanced Tools and Technologies for Deep Brain Stimulation in Movement Disorders - SBIR (R43/R44) (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-07-396.html) Relevant Study SectionsMusculoskeletal Rehabilitation Sciences (MRS)
Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering (MTE) Note: Many grants in the area of rehabilitation engineering will be directed by CSR to Special Emphasis Panels (http://www.csr.nih.gov/Roster_proto/allother_sep.asp) A complete listing of review groups and study sections can be found at the Center for Scientific Review (http://cms.csr.nih.gov/PeerReviewMeetings/).
Program staff recommend that principal investigators include a cover letter listing areas of scientific expertise needed to review the application and how the expertise should be balanced (please do not include names), or potential study section assignments. Questions may be directed to the program director mentioned above.
