The Senses and Behavior 3. The Neurobiology of Aging and Disease Each of these topics is well represented across the neuroscience community. However, department, school, and disciplinary boundaries often prevent investigators studying the same topic at different levels of inquiry from developing collaborative or integrative research programs. The new Schmitt Program is intended to catalyze and promote new directions of neuroscience research within the three target areas, and to encourage interdisciplinary research, spanning cognitive through systems to cellular and molecular approaches. Resources for each of these mechanisms will be distributed within the three areas of focus listed above.
Emphasis is placed on the interdisciplinary character and novelty of research.
Funds are available to support interdisciplinary research projects, technical development projects, postdoctoral fellows, visiting professors, and colloquium speakers.
