Its goals are to promote high-quality research in neuroscience and neural engineering, to train graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in an interdisciplinary environment so that they can compete in the academic and industry markets, and identify and develop synergies among research groups across different departments and colleges.
IBNR will holistically represent neuroscience and neural engineering research and training at NJIT in order to provide visibility at the national and international levels.
IBNR will collaborate with similar institutes at Rutgers University, Princeton University, other local academic institutions and local industry to stimulate the formation of NJ Neuroscience at the state level.
