Behavioral Science is a field with
tremendous capacity to advance our
scientific understanding of diseases and
mental health. The goal of this core is to
enhance current investigations as well as to
stimulate further neuroscience research
through enhanced scientific interactions
between basic scientists at PSM. Our core
facility provides a centralized source of
expertise and access to behavioral equipment
to increase the productivity of the
scientists at PSM.
Aims:
Establish a
central core facility with the equipment
necessary to analyze the effects of
different treatments on animal behavior
and analyze human cognition.
Provide
technical support and consultation in
basic behavioral experiment design and
data analysis.
Encourage the
development of new projects and
collaborations between PSM investigators
with the goal of translating basic
research to more clinical applications
through seminars and workshops.
