<div dir="ltr"><div>The Neuroengineering IGERT Training Program at the University of
Minnesota, funded by the National Science Foundation, is inviting
outstanding students to apply through the Graduate Program in
Neuroscience or the Biomedical Engineering Program. The IGERT program is aimed at training the next generation
of scientific and technical leaders in the interface of engineering and
systems neurosciences, as broadly defined. The training themes
include: <div><br></div><div>1) Neural decoding - Computational
and theoretical neuroscience and neuroengineering studies on decoding
theory, methods, as pursued via animal models or human studies.
Neuroimaging is also pursued as means of brain decoding. </div><div><br></div><div>2) Neural modulation - Mechanisms of neuromodulation in brains for both deep brain stimulation and transcranial stimulations. </div><div><br></div><div>3)
Neural interfacing - Mechanisms of motor control and learning as
applied to brain-machine interface, as pursued in animal models and
humans. </div><div><br></div><div>Outstanding training opportunities
include mentoring by co-advisors from over 40 faculty across engineering
and brain sciences, a new neuroengineering minor curriculum, industrial
and international internships, and general stipend and tuition coverage.</div><br>Visit the IGERT program website to find out more:<br><br><a href="http://www.igert-ne.umn.edu/" target="_blank">http://www.igert-ne.umn.edu/</a><br><br></div><br></div>
