The Evelyn F. and William L. McKnight Brain Institute (MBI) at the University of Florida (UF) is a comprehensive and diverse neuroscience research center that houses the UF College of Medicine’s four “neuro” departments: neuroscience, neurology, neurosurgery and psychiatry. [1] [2]
Heilman's research was interested in attentional, emotional and cognitive disorders. In addition to teaching medical and psychology students, he was active in resident education and was the director of the University of Florida Behavioral Neurology Fellowship that trained many post doctoral fellows since its inception in 1976.
Stephen E. Nadeau (born 1947) is an American behavioral neurologist, researcher and academician. He is a Professor of Neurology at the University of Florida College of Medicine. He is also the Associate Chief of Staff for Research at the Malcolm Randall Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
Cognitive neuroscience is a branch of both neuroscience and psychology, overlapping with disciplines such as behavioral neuroscience, cognitive psychology, physiological psychology and affective neuroscience. [2] Cognitive neuroscience relies upon theories in cognitive science coupled with evidence from neurobiology, and computational modeling. [2]
The brain collaborative will be guided by three primary pillars that, in effect, serve as its mission statement: Pillar 1: Deepening knowledge through brain science, education, and resiliency ...
Subdivisions of behavioral neuroscience include the field of cognitive neuroscience, which emphasizes the biological processes underlying human cognition. Behavioral and cognitive neuroscience are both concerned with the neuronal and biological bases of psychology, with a particular emphasis on either cognition or behavior depending on the ...
Having trained generations of behavioral neurologists (e.g., Antonio Damasio), Geschwind is considered the father of behavioral neurology. The advent of in vivo neuroimaging starting in the 1980s led to a further strengthening of interest in the cognitive neurosciences and provided a tool that allowed for lesion, structural, and functional ...
Molecular cellular cognition (MCC) is a branch of neuroscience that involves the study of cognitive processes with approaches that integrate molecular, cellular and behavioral mechanisms. Key goals of MCC studies include the derivation of molecular and cellular explanations of cognitive processes, as well as finding mechanisms and treatments ...
