research: Working Groups
The “working group” concept is critical to the long-term success and vibrancy of the BSi. This interdisciplinary collaborative effort fundamentally encourages thinking outside of traditional channels, processes and systems. This process has consistently produced innovative and creative research proposals with the potential for high impact in the field.   Some examples of past or emerging working groups include neural regeneration, pain, blood brain barrier and cerebral vasculature initiative, traumatic brain injury, visual and auditory perception, macro imaging, education, memory mechanisms and synapses, cognition and cognitive disorders.
