Georgetown Institute for Cognitive and Computational Sciences.
Abstract
During the past fiscal year faculty recruitment for the Institute has been completed: 3 professors, 1 associate professor, 12 assistant professors, and 5 research associates. In addition, 16 post-doctoral fellows and 13 technicians have been recruited, and the administrative staff has been hired. Laboratories for most of the faculty are now fully equipped and functional; the others are rapidly nearing completion. A 7 Tesla experimental NMR facility is now operational and a human 1.5 Tesla magnet has been ordered to support the research of the human cognitive group. Researchers are divided into 5 divisions: cognitive neuroscience (human); cognitive neuroscience (animal); computational neuroscience; drug discovery and design; and molecular neurobiology and plasticity. In addition, the Institute supports 6 complementary projects involving other faculty at Georgetown University Medical Center. During this period, a total of 53 papers and 43 abstracts were published by Institute faculty.
