Recently, the NIH BRAIN Initiative Multi-Council Working Group met to discuss future funding opportunities and the sixth annual BRAIN Initiative® Investigators meeting convened BRAIN-funded researchers, stakeholders, and the public to share and discuss the latest discoveries.
A message to the community from Dr. John Ngai, Director of the NIH BRAIN Initiative.
Dear BRAIN Investigators,
NIH seeks input on enhancing scientific and workforce diversity through the BRAIN Initiative. Public comments will be accepted through this Request for Information (RFI) through August 31, 2020.
Please join us for two upcoming virtual meetings: The Multi-Council Working Group meeting on May 22, 2020, and the sixth annual BRAIN Initiative® Investigators meeting on June 1-2, 2020.
We hope that everyone remains safe and healthy during the evolving coronavirus public health crisis. As you may know, many of our upcoming meetings will now be held virtually.
Multi-Council Working Group meeting – Friday, May 22, 2020
