Neuroscience
By Simon Dymond
The Neuroscience SIG (Neuro-SIG) brings together researchers, academics, clinicians, and students interested in the intersection of behavior analysis and neuroscience as it relates to basic research, clinical interventions, or general neurological dysfunction. The Neuro-SIG has three primary missions: 1) To introduce behavior analytic research to the neurosciences and introduce neuroscience research to behavior analysis; 2) To serve as both a meeting place and training environment for students and professionals alike interested in basic and applied neuroscience research; 3) To serve as a forum for collaborative relationships, funding applications, and the sharing of best-practice; 4) advocate for and promote high standards in the application of behavior analytic treatments for individuals with neurological dysfunction.
Membership is open to all ABA members, as well as academics, researchers, administrators, and clinicians from other organizations and consumers. We welcome anyone with an interest in the intersection of behavior analysis and neuroscience.
