About this opportunity
Synopsis NSF BIO supports mechanistic studies in neuroscience, from structure to function, that span multiple levels of analysis, from molecular and cellular to complex behavioral aspects of organisms. The use of comparative approaches, studies of organisms in their natural contexts, and the development of novel theoretical, computational, and transdisciplinary approaches to guide and instruct experimental design are encouraged. Proposals are accepted in the following three research areas: Organization Research on how the nervous system is organized along developmental, genetic, molecular, and cellular lines; explorations of developmental mechanisms; and how experiential/environmental interactions affect basic structural and functional characteristics of the nervous system.
