Prefrontal Cortical Influences on Brain Systems Supporting Complex Mental Function (R21)

Submission Date: January 11, 2008

This funding opportunity announcement solicits Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant applications that propose to use novel electrophysiological, molecular, genetic and/or imaging techniques in animals to examine the fundamental mechanisms by which regions in the mature and developing prefrontal cortex interact with other cortical and sub cortical systems to give rise to sophisticated behavior and complex mental function (e.g., cognition, emotion, reward, motivation).
