At the Center for Cognitive and Brain Sciences (CCBS), we are committed to supporting student research during both undergraduate and graduate careers. Every year, we award Summer Graduate Research Awards to a select group of graduate students who demonstrate academic excellence in the field of cognitive and brain sciences. Applicants are asked to propose a research project in collaboration with primary and secondary advisors who carry affiliations in two different academic departments. This annual program fosters interdisciplinary collaboration across the Ohio State University.
