As part of the CINN\u2019s remit to foster interdisciplinary research in all aspects of the brain, 15 new research projects have been supported through pump priming grants of between \u00a3500 and \u00a34000.<\/p>\n
Successful applications were judged to be the most ambitious and innovative proposals that addressed one or more of CINN\u2019s core research themes – Brain and Technology, Brain and Body, Brain and Humanity.<\/p>\n
Applicants had to demonstrate the feasibility of their research idea and state clearly the tangible outputs likely to result from support by CINN.<\/p>\n
