Over the next several years,  the FAS Research Development group will track and disseminate all funding opportunities related to the BRAIN Initiative.  These funding opportunities will be sent to a targeted list of faculty. The list will include faculty affiliates of the Center for Brain Science (CBS) and the Mind Brain Behavior (MBB) Interfaculty Initiative. This project is being carried out in collaboration with the Center for Brain Science. All opportunities will be archived and recipients may unsubscribe at any time.

�         Generate a census of cell types

�         Create structural maps of the brain

�         Develop new large-scale network recording capabilities

�         Develop a suite of tools for circuit manipulation

�         Link neuronal activity to behavior

�         Integrate theory, modeling, statistics, and computation with experimentation

�         Delineate mechanisms underlying human imaging technologies

�         Create mechanisms to enable collection of human data

Please see the below documents for additional information about the Working Group's report.

 

We anticipate that NIH BRAIN funding opportunity announcements will be released over the next few months. We look forward to tracking and disseminating all funding opportunities related to the BRAIN Initiative.
