The Decision Neuroscience Laboratory provides ample opportunity for the development of innovative, focused research and a broad collaborative cognitive neuroscience experience through affiliations with the Center for Brain, Biology, and Behavior; the Nebraska Athletics Performance Laboratory; and the Department of Psychology. The Decision Neuroscience Laboratory has received support from the National Institutes of Health BRAIN Initiative, the National Institute of Aging, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Defense ( DARPA ), the Office of the Director of National Intelligence ( IARPA ), and private industry.

This research fellowship is designed as a three-year experience that includes a speaker series, journal article discussions, laboratory presentations and discussions, tutorial training, and the teaching of skills necessary to conduct original cognitive neuroscience research.
