Neurostimulation to Investigate In Vivo Radiofrequency Bioeffects

Due: May 1, 2025

$100,000

Description

The mission of the AFRL’s Radio Frequency Bioeffects Branch (RHDR) is to understand the interaction of radio frequency (RF) directed energy with biological systems to improve human health and safety. To better understand the potential biological hazards of exposure to RF radiation, our lab will use advanced neurostimulation techniques to study potential changes in biological systems caused by the absorption of RF. Neurostimulation studies may be conducted at the cell, tissue, organ, or organismal level. Neurostimulation technique...

Grantor Contact InformationJennie Burns, phone: 210 539 8538Grantor Emailjennie.burns.1@us.af.milOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
